Solution
Your program may not be sending a form
feed command to the printer. At the end of
your program or the page, send a form
feed (FF). If you are using BASIC, be sure
to add a semicolon (;) after the FF code to
prevent any additional codes from being
sent to the printer.
You may have tried to back feed too many
pages. Before ejecting the paper, always
tear off the last printed page. See Chapter 3.
You may be trying to eject labels. Labels
may jam
when

always use the
labels forward to eject them.
Pull the paper release lever forward to the
