When using fanfold paper (push tractor), single sheets can be inserted without
removing paper from the tractor feeder.
The fanfold paper can be moved to the parking position by the switches on
the operation panel. Switching to friction feed after doing this allows printing
on single sheets with the fanfold paper in the tractor feeder left as it is.
To switch from fanfold paper to single sheet mode proceed as follows:
1. Tear off printed paper at its perforation, if necessary.
2. Press the PARK key. The fanfold paper is transported backward to the
park position.
3. Move the paper select lever backward to Single Sheet position.
4. If necessary, readjust the Print Gap lever for continuous forms (see sec-
tion "Print gap lever" on page 20).
5. Raise the single sheet feeder until it locks in its mounting.
6. Align the left paper guide with the mark on the left of the single sheet
feeder. Adjust the right paper guide to the width of the paper used.
7. Insert a sheet of paper. Make sure that the bottom edge of the paper
engages snugly with the platen. The paper will automatically advance to
the top-of-form position if the single sheet load option of the setup mode
is set to automatic.
To switch from single sheet mode to tractor mode, proceed as follows:
1. If a single sheet is loaded, press the FF/LOAD key. The sheet is ejeceted.
2. Move the paper select lever forward to continuous paper position.
3. Press the FF/LOAD key again. The printer feeds the fanfold paper to
the top of form position.
