Paper Handling - Epson LQ-1050X User Manual

Paper Handling

The following section guides you through problems in handling
single sheets and continuous paper. If you are having problems
using the optional cut sheet feeder or pull tractor, see the section on
options later in this chapter.
Problem
Single sheets do not
feed properly.
The LOAD/EJECT
button was pressed,
but the platen did not
move and paper was
not fed.
Troubleshooting
7-16
Solution
You may be trying to feed paper using
one of the control panel buttons while the
printer is on line (ON LINE light is on).
Press the ON LINE button once to take the
printer off line; then feed the paper. After
feeding the paper, press the ON LINE
button again to set the printer on line. See
Chapter 3.
The cut sheet feeder mode may be turned
on (DIP switch 1-7 is on). When you are
not using the cut sheet feeder, make sure
DIP switch 1-7 is off. See Chapter 3.
The left edge guide may be set too far to
the right so that the paper detector cannot
sense it. Move the paper a little to the left.
The PAPER OUT light should go off.
