Using the push and pull tractors in combination
You can improve paper feeding and reduce paper jams by using
two tractors at the same time. This is especially helpful for
printing on continuous pre-printed forms, multi-part forms, or
labels, and for printing high-quality graphics. When using two
tractors in combination, you can load paper either in the front
paper slot both the front push tractor and the pull tractor, or in
the rear paper slot with both the rear push tractor and the pull
tractor.
Combination
rear push
and pull
front push
and pull
Note:
For more information on how to use two tractors in a push and pull
combination, see "Using two tractors in a push/pull combination" on
page 2-29.
Description
To use the rear push tractor with the pull tractor, you
need to remove the standard tractor that comes in
the front push position and install it in the pull
position.
Note:
Because thick multi-part forms require a straight
paper path, load them in the front slot.
Caution:
Do not load continuous paper with labels onto
the rear push tractor even when it is used in
combination with the pull tractor. If you load
continuous paper with labels onto the rear push/pull
tractor, the labels may come off their backing sheet
inside the printer and cause a paper jam.
To use the front push tractor with the pull tractor, you
need to purchase the optional pull tractor
(C80033 ) and install it in the pull position.
