Multipart forms
You can use continuous or single-sheet carbonless multipart
forms of up to five parts (one original plus four copies). Follow
these guidelines:
❏ Set the paper thickness lever to the correct position for your
forms. (See page 29.)
❏ Use continuous multipart forms that are joined only by spot
gluing or side-crimping. Never load continuous multipart
forms joined by metal staples, tape, or continuous gluing.
❏ Use single-sheet multipart forms that are line-glued only at
the top. Insert the forms glued-edge-first into the printer.
❏ Make sure that multipart forms are not wrinkled.
