Loading Multi-Part Forms

You can use carbonless multi-part forms of up to seven parts (six
copies in addition to the original). Make sure you set the paper
thickness lever to the proper position based on the number of
layers in your form.
For best results with thick paper, such as multi-part forms, select
a straight or almost straight paper path. It is best to load multi-
part forms using:
the front slot and the front push tractor
the front or bottom slot and the pull tractor
Except for setting the paper thickness lever, you load multi-part
forms the same way you load ordinary continuous paper. For
details, see the sections on loading continuous paper earlier in this
chapter.
Note:
Be sure your multi-part forms do not exceed 0.46 mm (0.018 inches)
in thickness for the printable area and 0.9 mm (0.035 inches) for the
perforated edges.
Use multi-part forms only under normal temperature and humidity
conditions, as follows:
