Cut-Sheet Feeders; Installing A Cut-Sheet Feeder - Epson 5000/5500 User Manual

Cut-Sheet Feeders

Two cut-sheet feeders are available for use with your printer:
ActionPrinter 5000
ActionPrinter 5500
* Substitute for last digit, which varies by country.
The single-bin cut-sheet feeder holds up to 50 single sheets of paper
and the high-capacity cut-sheet feeder holds up to 150 sheets of
paper or up to 25 envelopes.
By connecting both cut-sheet feeders, you can operate them as a
double-bin cut-sheet feeder (see Assembling the double-bin cut-sheet
feeder). This allows you to load two different types of paper
automatically.
Assemble the cut-sheet feeder by following the instructions in the
manual that comes with it.

Installing a cut-sheet feeder

You follow the same steps to install either the single-bin or high-
capacity cut-sheet feeder:
1. Make sure the printer is turned off. Remove the paper guide and
printer cover.
2. If the standard tractor is installed in the pull-tractor position,
remove it and re-install in the push-tractor position. If the
optional pull tractor is installed, remove it. In either case, make
sure the paper-tension unit is installed.
Note:
Store the paper guide and optional pull-tractor in a safe place;
l
you will need them if you remove the cut-sheet feeder.
If you install the single-bin cut-sheet feeder, you need to re-
l
install the paper guide after you load the paper.
