You can use the front, bottom, or rear paper slot with the pull
tractor.
Paper slot Description
front
If you print on thick paper such as multi-part forms or
continuous paper with labels, use the front paper slot
because this paper path is almost straight. This reduces
the chance of paper jams.
bottom
The bottom paper slot has the straightest paper path, so
it is the best slot to use when printing on thick paper,
such as multi-part forms or continuous paper with labels.
Note:
When loading paper in the bottom slot, be sure to use a
printer stand with an opening large enough for the paper
to feed through it without obstruction.
rear
You can also load continuous paper from the rear pull
tractor position.
Note:
Paper loaded from the rear slot results in a curved paper
path, which may affect loading performance, so use the
front or bottom slot whenever possible.
Caution:
Do not load continuous paper with labels in the rear slot;
the labels may come off their backing sheet inside the
printer and cause a paper jam.
