cassette knob 2 or 3 more times,

wrinkles or creases and is installed below the print head as

Inserting Slip Paper

Note:
Use only slip paper that matches the specification.
Do not use wrinkled or curled paper.
1. When the SLIP LED flashes, insert slip
paper, using the right edge of the slip
paper inlet as a guide (see illustration 4 ).
2. When you insert the slip into the inlet as
far as it will go, the sensor detects the
slip, the SLIP LED changes from flashing
to on, and the printer draws the paper in
and prints it.
3. After printing is complete, the SLIP LED goes off, and you can
remove the slip.
