3 Paper Installation Guide

The printer can handle either single sheets or continuous forms. Single sheets, also called
cut sheets, include envelopes and non-continuous, multipart forms. Continuous forms
include labels and multipart forms fed into the printer using the forms tractors. The printer is
able to print 1~5 plies multipart paper.
Remove the paper-clips. Do not load paper that has been folded or damaged,
wrinkled, or curled.

3.1 Adjusting the Print Gap Lever

The print gap lever is on the left side of the printer inside the top cover. Take care to adjust
the print gap lever to a suitable position whenever you change the number of copies being
printed. Using the wrong print gap may cause print head damage or paper jams.
