IBM A00 Printer User Manual


 
Your 4247 Printer is ready to print. See “Printing Power On Configuration Setup” on
page 27 and “Printing Program Configuration Setup” on page 28 to print the
configuration. If you do not want to use the printer defaults for forms settings (such
as Line Spacing, Page Length, or Top of Form), see “Program Configuration” on
page 106.
Setting Up Push Pull Forms Path
This forms path configuration allows you to load forms into the printer through the
Front Push forms tractor and out through the Rear Pull forms tractor. Because the
printer will be using two forms tractors and a straight forms path, this forms path
provides improved forms handling for difficult situations like thicker, multiple-part
forms or a high humidity environment.
You must remove the optional Automatic Sheet Feeder (ASF) from the printer to
use this forms path. See the
4247 Printer Automatic Sheet Feeder Guide
.
IBM recommends that you
not
select Manual when the printer is set for either the
Rear Pull or the Push Pull forms paths. Manual can be selected from the operator
panel, but to use it you will need to re-configure the forms path both before and
after using Manual. See “Summarizing Forms Path Set Up” on page 39.
Figure 41 on page 71 shows the Push Pull forms path.
