Using the push and pull tractors in combination
To improve continuous paper feeding and reduce paper jams,
you can use two tractors at the same time. This is especially
helpful for printing on continuous pre-printed forms, multi-part
forms, or labels, and for printing high quality graphics. When
using two tractors in combination, you can load paper in the front
paper slot onto the front push tractor and the pull tractor, or load
paper in the rear paper slot onto the rear push tractor and the pull
tractor.
Note:
For more information on using two tractors in a push and pull
combination, see page 2-29.
Combination Description
rear push
and pull
To use the rear push tractor with the pull tractor, you
need to remove the standard tractor that comes in
the front push position and install it in the pull
position.
Note:
Because thick multi-part forms require a straight
paper path, load them in the front slot.
Caution:
Do not load continuous paper with labels onto
the rear push tractor even when it is used in
combination with the pull tractor. If you load
continuous paper with labels onto the rear push/pull
tractor, the labels may come off their backing sheet
inside the printer and cause a paper jam.
front push
and pull
To use the front push tractor with the pull tractor, you
need to purchase the optional pull tractor
(C80032
) and install it in the pull position.
