Paper Handling
Selecting a Paper Source
Your printer can print on continuous paper, multipart forms (with one original and up to six
copies), cards, labels, single sheets, envelopes, and roll paper.
Caution:
!
Do not use paper that is folded (except envelope flaps), creased, curled, torn, stained, or
stamped. Always use new, clean paper that meets the paper specifications. See "Paper" on
page 113 for more detailed information.
Your printer can accommodate various paper types through two paper sources: sheet guide or
tractor. You should select the paper source depending on the type of paper you are using. You can
select the paper source by setting the paper release lever. See "Printer Parts" on page 14 for more
information.
