Figure 1-10. Align the top of the paper and the print head.
9. Adjust the paper left or right by sliding the tractor. When the
paper
is positioned (usually the left edge is aligned with the
print head), lock the tractors in place by flipping back the
locking levers
on the back of the tractor unit.
10. Replace the
printer cover and turn on the power switch.
You're ready to start printing.
The placement of the feed paper stack and the output pile is impor-
tant for smooth feeding and printer operation. The feed paper stack
must be placed either behind or below the back of the printer so the
paper can flow
smoothly into the printer without interfering with
what comes out.
Wherever
you place it, make sure the paper can feed into the printer
in a straight line. If the stack is off-center, it may cause the paper to
misfeed. A typical setup for paper feeding
is shown in Figure 1-11.
