Epson Apex-80 Printer User Manual


 
Once you have set the top of form, each time you finish printing a
document, push the
ON/OFF LINE
button to put the printer offline
and then push the
FORM FEED
button once to advance the paper one
sheet. This enables you to tear off your just-printed pages and leave th
paper in the correct position to begin the next document.
Note
Make sure that the front lid is in place whenever you print. (Always
snap the lid shut when replacing the lid.) The front lid doubles as a
paper bail, holding the paper against the platen.
Removing the tractor unit
It is necessary to remove the tractor unit before you use single-sheet
paper. To remove the unit, follow these steps:
1. Remove the front lid.
2. Open the pin feed
covers and pull the paper off the pins. Then lay
the paper over the front of the printer so you can reach the tractor
feed unit.
3. Grasp both sides of the tractor unit and gently lift up the front end.
This action unsnaps the front legs of the tractor unit and enables
you to lift off the unit.
4. Pull the paper guide toward you until it settles into an upright
position for single-sheet paper.
5. Make sure that the paper release lever is forward, and remove the
paper.
6. Replace the front lid.
Using Single-sheet Paper
The automatic loading feature handles individual sheets quickly and
easily.
Before you load single-sheet paper, you must prepare the printer by
installing the paper guide in an upright position. If the tractor unit is
installed, remove it by following the above instructions. After following
those instructions, you can skip the following section on paper guide
installation, except for step 3 on aligning the left edge guide.
