Assembling the Printer

Attach the paper guide.
Installing the platen knob
The first step in setting up the printer is to install the platen knob. You
should never need to use this knob during the normal operation of your
printer. However, in case of a paper jam, you can use this knob to
manually feed paper. (Be sure the printer is turned off before using the
platen knob.)
You’ll find the platen knob packed in an
indentation in the white foam packing
material.
