Switching Between Continuous Paper and
Single Sheets
You can easily switch between continuous paper and single sheets
without removing the continuous paper from the tractor.
Switching to single sheets
Follow these steps to switch from continuous paper to single
sheets:
1. When the Auto tear-off function is turned on, the printer
advances the paper to the tear-off position automatically.
2. Tear off the printed pages.
c
Caution:
❏ Always tear off paper before feeding it backwards; feeding
too many sheets backwards can cause a paper jam.
❏ Never feed labels backward using the Load/Eject
button. Labels can easily peel off their backing and jam
the printer. For information on removing labels from the
paper path, see “To tear off and eject labels” on page 16.
3. Press the Load/Eject button to feed the continuous paper
back to the standby position. The paper is still attached to the
tractor, but is no longer in the paper path.
4. Set the paper release lever to the single-sheet feeding position.
Now you can load single sheets from the paper guide. See
“Loading Single Sheets” on page 12 for more information.
