Something may be obstructing the paper feed. Make sure
that the paper can feed smoothly into the printer.
The supply of paper may be too far from the printer.
Position the paper supply so that it is no more than 1 meter
(3 feet) from the printer.
The paper may be caught on the edge guides. Make sure
that the paper guide is installed over the paper and that the
edge guides are positioned at the center of the paper's
width.
The pull tractor and push tractor sprockets are not aligned
correctly. When using both tractors, be sure that the
sprockets on both are positioned evenly.
The paper may have too much slack. Adjust the position of
the sprockets to take up any slack along the width of the
paper. Remove slack lengthwise by pressing in and rotating
the pull tractor feed knob on the right.
The paper thickness lever may not be set correctly. Set the
paper thickness lever to match the thickness of your paper.
The paper may not meet the specification for your printer.
Check that your paper is of the proper size, weight, and
thickness. See Chapter 7.
