40 Paper Handling
The following table provides a general guide for setting the adjustment lever.
Experiment with different settings until you find the one that gives you the print
quality you want.
Important!
Continuous use of the wrong adjustment lever setting can drastically reduce
print head life! The Multi-part Mode is recommended when printing on 4 or 5-
ply paper.
Automatic fanfold feeding
❏
See “Loading fanfold paper” on page 9 for details on using fanfold paper.
Manual sheet feeding
You can use the following procedure to manually feed single sheets of paper
into the printer.
❏ Make sure that there is no fanfold paper in the printer. If there is, use the
procedure under “Parking fanfold paper” on page 13 to park the fanfold
paper and prepare for manual sheet feeding.
❏ Set the release lever to the cut-sheet position.
❏ Stand up the paper guide (page 8).
❏ Align the left paper guide with the scale mark that matches the size of the
paper you are using.
For any paper size other than A3 landscape (horizontal), align the paper
guide with scale 0 (zero). For A3 landscape paper, align the paper guide with
the far left mark.
❏ Adjust the right paper guide so there is enough space to insert the paper.
