1 Be sure the tractor is in the

D Paper select lever
2 Install the paper guide in the
upright position used for in-
serting paper. To do this,
hold the paper guide so that
the two corner extensions point downward into the printer. Slide the guide pins (A) onto
the L shaped channel slot. At the same time, position the paper guide forward slightly
allowing the pins to slip into the vertical channel. When installed correctly the paper
guide sits in an upright position.
3 Change the paper select lever (D) to the rear (single sheet) position. To use the paper
guide, simply move the left paper holder to the left as tar as it will go. This is the normal
position, however you can adjust it according to the size of paper you will be using. Insert
a sheet of paper and adjust the right paper holder to the paper width.
4 With the sheet of paper out of the printer, turn the printer on. The POWER light glows
and then flashes to indicate PAPER OUT.
5 a piece of paper head-in, face down, between the paper holders (as you would load
paper in a typewriter). Push the paper down gently to be sure it is all the way in.
6 Wait a brief time. The paper automatically feeds into the printer and stops when it reaches
the correct position for the starting line of print. The PAPER OUT light stops flashing.
7 Prepare to print by pressing the ON LINE key which illuminates the ON LINE light.
Your printer is now ready to receive data from your computer and print a document on single
sheets. The printer waits between pages for you to insert each new sheet and the control panel
reminds you to load paper by the POWER/PAPER OUT LED flashing.
Loading sheets repeatedly is faster and more efficient with the automatic sheet feeder. Read
more about them in Appendix C, Accessories.
Printing On Multi-Part Forms
Printing on multi-part forms uses the bottom feeding
method with the tractor in the pull position in order to
grip the exiting forms and pull them out. Feeding paper
in this way allows the forms almost straight through the
printer with minimal curling around the platen. However,
you will not be able to use the paper tear off, top of form
fine adjustment and paper parking features.
