Paper Handling
The following section covers single-sheet and continuous-paper
problems. For cut-sheet feeder problems, see the section on options,
starting on page 6-11.

When you insert single-sheet paper, the platen does not rotate and
paper does not feed.
Check that the paper-release lever is pushed back to the single-
sheet position.
The paper may be too far to the right. Align the left edge guide
with the arrow mark on the paper guide.
l
When you insert the paper, the platen rotates but paper does not feed.
Reinsert the paper more firmly.

Printing starts too low on the page, or the bottom part of one page is
printed at the top of the next page.
Be sure to choose the correct printer from your application
program’s menu. See page 1-15.
If possible, specify single-sheet paper with your application
software.
Use your application software to reduce or eliminate the top
margin and reduce the page length.
Reduce the lines-per-page setting in your software.
