See that the printer is turned off, open the front lid, and push the
friction lever back and the paper bail forward. Then move the print
head by hand to the center of the printer and feed the paper into the
paper slot in the top of the printer,
When the paper will not go any farther, turn the paper feed knob
to advance it as you would with a typewriter. Turn the knob until the
top of the paper is at least 3/+inch above the ribbon guide. Then push
the paper bail against the paper. If the paper becomes crooked, pull
the friction-release lever forward, straighten the paper, and push the
friction lever back.
If you have the optional tractor unit for continuous pin-feed paper,
see Appendix E for instructions on its use.
Control Panel
Now that your paper is loaded, it is time to plug in the printer and
see what the buttons on the control panel do. First, see that the power
switch on the right side of the printer is off; then plug in the power
cord. Now turn on the power switch and look at the control panel on
the right side of the top of your LX-80.
