Choosing and Loading Paper
The LQ-2500 printer can accommodate many different sizes and
types of paper, using either its automatic single-sheet loading feature or
its built-in adjustable tractor.
The tractor is easy to use and can handle a wide range of paper
widths. The automatic single-sheet loading feature handles individual
sheets quickly and easily and for greater efficiency you can add an
optional automatic sheet feeder.
Choosing Paper
Without installing any accessories, you can use single-sheet paper
from 71/4 to 14% inches wide, and continuous-feed paper from 4 to 16
inches wide (including the perforated edge strips).
Carbon copies
If you use multi-part forms or carbon copies in the LQ, use no more
than four sheets or parts at a time, with a total thickness of no more
than 0.22 mm. . Also so change the paper thickness setting as described at
the end of this chapter.
Loading Single Sheets
You have already loaded single-sheet paper using the automatic sheet
loading feature in Step 7 of the setup chapter. This feature gives you
short printing times by combining fast loading with fast printing.
If you print large amounts on single sheets of paper, however, you
may find it more convenient to use an automatic sheet feeder. This is
an optional device that holds a stack of paper and inserts a new sheet
