Switching to single-sheet paper in the cut-sheet feeder
1. If any continuous paper remains in the printer, press the Tear
Off/Bin button to advance the paper to the tear-off position.
Then tear off the printed pages.
c
Caution:
Tear off any printed documents before pressing the
Load/Eject
button in the next step. Reverse feeding several pages at a time
may cause a paper jam.
2. Press the Load/Eject button. The printer feeds the paper
backward to the standby position. The paper is still attached
to the push tractor but is no longer in the paper path.
3. Move the printer’s paper release lever to the single-sheet
position. Also set the paper thickness lever to the proper
position for the thickness of your single-sheet paper.
4. Move the cut-sheet feeder’s paper type lever to the single-
sheet position.
5. If you are using the double-bin cut-sheet feeder, select the bin
you want to use as described on “Selecting the paper source
(bin 1 or bin 2)” on page A-11.
Using the Roll Paper Holder
The optional roll paper holder (#8310) allows you to use 8.5-inch
roll paper like that used with telex machines. This provides an
inexpensive alternative to using continuous paper for
applications that require variable paper lengths. Before you
install and use the roll paper holder, you need to assemble it.
Assembling the roll paper holder
To assemble the roll paper holder, follow the steps below.
