Using the Tractor in the Pull Position (optional)
Using the tractor in the pull position is ideal for printing on thick
and heavy continuous paper, such as multipart forms or
continuous paper with labels. However, you cannot use the tear-
off feature with the pull tractor.
Because thick paper requires a straight paper path to avoid paper
jams, it is best to load paper in the front or bottom slot when using
the pull tractor. You can also load paper onto the pull tractor from
the rear slot. However, doing so is not recommended because the
paper path from the rear slot is curved.

Caution:
Do not load continuous paper with labels in the rear paper slot;
the labels may come off their backing sheet inside the printer and
cause a paper jam.
To further reduce the chance of paper jams and improve the
performance of continuous paper, you can use two tractors in
combination. When using this printing method, you load your
paper onto both the front push tractor and the pull tractor, or both
the rear push tractor and the pull tractor. See “Using two tractors
in a push and pull combination” on page 2-27.
