Star Micronics SB-15 Printer User Manual


 
5. Open the tractor covers, right and left (Figure 2-7).
6. Flip the clamp levers forward. This allows the two
sprocket units to move freely right and left, so you can
align them with the holes in the paper.
7. Pick up the first “sheet” and lift it up and through the
slot in the bottom of the SD-15.
8. Push the paper up to the front of the platen roller.
9. Feed the top sheet inside the paper bail bar and past the
platen, high enough so you can grip the paper from above
the printer.
10. Pull the paper up past the sprocket wheels.
11. When the holes fit snugly over the nubby teeth, close
tractor covers and snap the clamp levers back into the
locked positions.
12. With the platen knob, roll the paper up or down until
the correct “start-print” position is reached. This position
is achieved by lining up the horizontal perforation with
the top of the ribbon guide.
13. Now we’re ready to roll - replace the printer cover, and
turn on the power switch. Speedy printing!
Figure 2-9. SD-15 can be loaded from the back like SD-10 or from the
bottom, as shown here.
