There are two push tractor positions: front and rear. The tractor
is installed in the rear push position when the printer is shipped.
See the table below for details about the push positions and the
corresponding paper paths.
Using the pull tractor position
If you often print on thick or heavy continuous paper, such as
multipart forms or continuous paper with labels, use the tractor
in the pull position. The pull tractor provides you with the best
paper jam prevention, and allows you to load continuous paper
from the front, rear, or bottom of the printer. However, you cannot
use the tear-off feature when the tractor is in the pull position.
Tractor
position
Description
front push
Load paper from the front slot.
If you print on thick paper such as multipart forms, use
the front paper slot because this paper path is almost
straight. This reduces the chances of paper jams.
rear push
Load paper from the rear slot.
c
Caution:
Do not load continuous paper with
labels from the rear slot. Labels require
a straight paper path; otherwise the
labels may come off their backing sheets
inside the printer and cause a paper
jam.
Note:
The rear slot is also not recommended when
your multipart forms have 5 or 6 parts (1
original plus 4 or 5 copies), because paper
might jam.
