Selecting A Paper Feeding Method - Epson LQ-860 User Manual

Selecting a Paper Feeding Method

The paper release lever on the LQ-860 has three positions for use
with the various methods of paper feeding. When you switch the
paper path, you must change the lever to the correct position to
ensure smooth operation.
The lever has three icons beside it. Each icon indicates its paper
feeding method.
Single-sheet position: When you want to load single
sheets from both the paper guide and the optional cut
sheet feeder, set the lever in this position (all the way back).
Push tractor position: When you load continuous paper
with the built-in push tractor, set the lever in this
position (in the middle).
Pull tractor position: When you load continuous paper
with the optional pull tractor, set the lever in this
position (all the way forward). Even when you use the
PULL
built-in push tractor at the same time, you must set the
lever to this position. Only select this position if you are
using the optional pull tractor.
