Forms
You can use two types of forms (paper) in your printer:
Continuous forms (F1 and F2 forms devices)
Cut forms (F3 and F4 forms devices).
The forms may be blank or preprinted. The forms may be single-part
or multiple-part, with or without carbon paper.
Keep in mind the following as you work with forms:
Inspect all forms for damage.
Do not use stapled, torn, or wrinkled forms.
When you use forms directly from a box, remove the box tops;
or, preferably, remove the forms from the box. Rough box-top
edges can damage the forms or cause the forms to jam.
All multiple-part cut forms must be glued at the top edge.
A maximum of four-part forms is recommended for the best
registration, feeding, and stacking. You might be able to use
five- or six-part forms, but test them before ordering large
quantities.
Humidity affects forms feeding and stacking. Keep all forms in a
cool, dry place. If the forms are exposed to high humidity, allow
them to adjust to the humidity level of the printer area for
approximately 24 hours before you use them.
See Appendix C, “Forms Information” on page C-1 for more
information.
