Selecting and Loading Forms
Note: A form is not considered “loaded” by merely placing the
form in the tractors. To prevent printing on the wrong

tractors, the form must be “loaded” using the control
panel as described in the next section, “Loading a New

To position the form for printing, you may press the FORM FEED button
which will position the form, or you may press the ONLINE button which will
both position the form and place the printer on line.
