Selecting a Paper Feeding Method
Your printer can feed single sheets from the top and front and
continuous paper from the rear, front, and bottom. Also, you can
use the tractor unit for continuous paper as either a push or pull
tractor.
You will probably use only one or two of these methods on a
regular basis.
This chapter explains the various methods of paper handling and
includes recommendations on the feeding methods best suited to
your specific needs.
Setting the paper-release lever
The paper-release lever has three positions, with icons indicating the
type of paper and paper path for each position.
