Cut-Sheet Feeders
Two cut-sheet feeders are available for use with your printer:
Printer
Single-bin High-capacity
LQ-870 C806371
C806381
LQ-1170 C806391
C806401
The single-bin cut-sheet feeder holds up to 50 single sheets of
paper. When this cut-sheet feeder is installed alone, you can still
manually insert single sheets using the paper guide.
The high-capacity cut-sheet feeder holds up to 150 sheets of paper.
You can also load up to 25 envelopes automatically with this
cut-sheet feeder.
You can also connect both cut-sheet feeders and operate them as a
double-bin cut-sheet feeder (see Assembling the double-bin cut-
sheet feeder). This allows you to load two different types of paper
automatically.
Follow the directions included with your cut-sheet feeder to
assemble it; then install the cut-sheet feeder as described in this
chapter.
Installing a cut-sheet feeder
Installation of each cut-sheet feeder-single-bin, high-capacity, or
double-bin-is basically the same. Install your cut-sheet feeder by
following the steps below.
1.
Make sure the printer is turned off. Remove the paper guide
and printer cover.
. .
2. If the tractor unit is installed in the top-tractor position,
remove it and re-install it in the front- or rear-tractor position
and install the paper-tension unit.
Note: Keep the paper guide handy; if you install the single-bin
unit, you need to re-install the paper guide after you load paper.
Also, you will need it if you ever remove the cut-sheet feeder.
