Paper Handling
Selecting a Paper Source
Your printer provides a variety of paper sources for printing on single sheets and continuous paper.
Paper can be fed into the printer from the front, bottom, or rear. Select the paper source that best suits
your current printing needs.
!
Caution:
Do not use paper that is folded, creased, curled, torn, stained, or stamped. Always use new, clean
paper that meets the paper specifications. See “Paper” on page 147 for more details.
Printing on continuous paper
You can choose from three tractor positions (front push, rear push, and pull) and three paper entry
slots (front, rear, and bottom) for continuous paper printing. This section helps you determine which
paper paths and tractor positions are best for your continuous paper printing needs. See “Loading
continuous paper with the tractor” on page 21 for tractor installation and paper loading
instructions.
Using the push tractor positions
If you often need to tear off sheets of continuous paper (for example, if you are printing purchase
orders or sales slips), it is best to use the tractor in the front or rear push position. This allows you to use
the printer’s tear-off edge to easily tear off sheets of continuous paper at the perforation. Also, when
continuous paper is loaded on a rear push tractor, you can print on single sheets of paper from the
sheet guide without removing the continuous paper from the tractor.
There are two push tractor positions: front and rear. See the table below for details about the push
positions and the corresponding paper paths.
