Epson FX-1050 Printer User Manual


 
The Pull Tractor
The optional pull tractor
(#7311
for the FX-850 and #7312 for
the
FX-1050) provides optimum continuous paper handling. The pull tractor
is especially useful with continuous multi-part forms and labels. For best
results, use
the
pull tractor along with the built-in push tractor, as
described in this section.
After making sure that you have both parts of the pull tractor option as
shown
below, remove the packing material and save it in case you need
to ship the unit later.
Caution: The short tear-off
function cannot be used with the pull
tractor. Before you start printing
with
the pull tractor, make sure that
DIP switch
l-5 is set to on. (Short
tear-off is turned off only when the
DIP switch is set to on. See the section on setting DIP switches in
Chapter 3.)
Installation and use
After making sure that the printer is turned off, install and use the pull
tractor
as
follows:
1. Remove
the
printer cover and the paper guide and install the paper
rest if you
haven’t
already. (See Chapter 2.)
