Paper Handling
Printing on Continuous Paper
Your printer can handle continuous paper with the tractor.
Depending on where you position the tractor, you can use it as a
pull tractor or a push tractor. The following guidelines can help
you decide where to position the tractor:
Do you want to switch between printing on single sheets and
continuous paper without removing the paper supply? Will
you tear off continuous paper sheet-by-sheet? Use the tractor
in the push tractor position. (The printer comes with the
tractor installed in this position.) See the following section.
Are you printing on labels, multipart forms, or other
documents that require a precise print position? Use the
tractor as a pull tractor. See “Printing with the pull tractor”
on page 22 for instructions.
Printing with the push tractor
When using the push tractor, it is a good idea to set the Auto tear
off feature in the Default Setting mode to On. See “About Your
Printer’s Default Settings” on page 88.
Note:
The illustrations in this manual are from LX-300+II. LX-1170II is wider
than LX-300+II. However, the explanations are the same.
Follow these steps to load continuous paper using the push
tractor:
