2.2.5.2. Friction Feeding Method (Figure 2-7)
The paper is loaded from the upper paper entrance with the paper release lever set backward. The paper
is held against the platen by the paper feed roller and is fed due to friction with the platen and paper
feed roller. As in the push tractor feed method, the paper tension unit is used to prevent paper feed
problems.
