Oki Microline 390 User Manual

(3) Cut-sheet and continuous sheet switchin.g mechanism (See Figure 3-9.)
The selection of cut-sheet and continuous sheet is done by using the release lever on the right
side of the printer mechanism.
When the release lever is pushed back, the change gear is moved outward in the direction of
the arrow. As the power transmission from the idler gear to tractor gear is removed, the pin
tractor becomes inoperative.
Continuous form
Figure 3-9
Cut-sheets are fed by the rotation of the platen, but continuous sheets are not. When the
release lever is pulled forward, the change gear moves inward, opposite of the arrow because
the change gear is pressed against the reset spring. The rotation of the idler gear is then
transmitted to the tractor gear and continuous sheets can be fed.
