FX-870/1170
Additional Tractor Unit
You can improve the performance of continuous paper
handling by using two tractor units at the
same time. An
additional tractor unit is available as an option. This is
especially useful for continuous preprinted forms, multi-part
forms, and labels. Using two tractor units at once is also
recommended for the highest quality graphics.
Also, if you install the tractor units in the front and rear
push-tractor positions, you can load two types of continuous
paper at the same time and switch between them by moving
the paper-release lever.
Tractor positions and paper paths
below are the various ways of feeding continuous paper with
two tractor units.
