Using Continuous Paper
You can load continuous paper through the front, rear, or bottom
paper slots, depending upon the position of the tractor unit and the
placement of your paper supply.
Your printer can handle continuous paper up to 254 mm (10.0
inches) wide on the standard-width carriage and up to 406 mm (16.0
inches) wide on the wide carriage.
To print on continuous paper, you can install the tractor unit in one
of the following positions: front, rear, or pull. Be sure you set the
paper-release lever correctly before you print. See Setting the paper-
release lever at the beginning of this chapter for a description of each
position.
