Paper for the 6820 Printer has perforated strips that fit onto the pinfeed
holder pins, guiding the paper into the printer. This paper is sold separate-
ly in 1-, 2-, or 3-ply forms. See "Inside Sales" in Chapter 1 for ordering
information and part numbers.
1 Open the pinfeed holders outward.
2 Take the top edge of the sheet of paper and position it, original side fac-
ing down, over the pinfeed holder pins.
3 Align the first few holes of the paper, on each side of the paper, onto the
pinfeed holder pins.
4 Close the pinfeed holders.
5 Raise the paper bail.
Note: There are two pinfeed holders, one next to the green thumb wheel
and one opposite the same wheel. Always loosen the pinfeed holder oppo-
site the green thumb wheel.
Note: Adjusting the pinfeed holder next to the green thumb wheel may
cause information to print in the wrong place. If this pinfeed holder is
moved, correct its location by releasing the pinfeed holder tab, moving the
pinfeed holder as close to the green thumb wheel as possible, then locking
the pinfeed holder tab, before adjusting the opposite pinfeed holder.
If the paper does not fit on the two pinfeed holders properly, follow these
steps to adjust the area between the two pinfeed holders to fit the width of
the paper. See the following illustration.
