Selecting a Paper Feeding Method

Your printer provides four paper paths so you can print on almost
any type of paper:

l
Install the tractor unit in the appropriate location to load
l
continuous paper from the front, rear, or bottom.
You can mount the tractor unit in three different positions to suit
your particular needs: use it as a front push tractor, rear push
tractor, or pull tractor.
Once you select a feeding method, you simply set the paper-release
lever, load your paper, and print. You can even print on single
sheets without removing your continuous paper supply. Also see
Chapter 4 for information on using an optional additional tractor
unit.
