Star Micronics XR-1520 Printer User Manual


 
Loading the paper from the rear of the printer
(Push feed)
You can load the fanfold paper with the internal push tractor unit.
1. Place a stack of fanfold paper behind and at least one page-length below
the printer.
2. Turn the printer’s power OFF.
3. Push the release lever backward. This has the effect of releasing the paper
from the platen roller, and engaging the tractor feed.
4. Remove the paper guide and put it aside for the moment.
5. Open the transparent part of the front cover, and the rear cover using the
two grips on either side, as in Figure 4-3.

the clamp lever at the back of each unit to release and lock them in

down, the unit is locked.
