Note:
❏
If the platen rotates but the printer does not load the paper, completely remove the paper and
then insert it all the way into the printer again.
❏
If the paper feeds before you can adjust its position properly, increase the Manual feed wait
time in the Default Setting mode. See “Changing default settings” on page 25 for more
information.
After printing a sheet, the printer ejects it onto the paper guide and the
Paper Out
and
Pause
lights come on. If you are printing a multiple-page document, remove the printed sheet and insert
a new sheet into the paper guide. The printer automatically advances the paper and resumes
printing.
Note:
If the printer does not eject the printed sheet, press the
Load/Eject
button.

Multipart forms
Your printer can print on both single sheet and continuous multipart forms. It can use multipart
forms with up to seven parts including the original.
!
Caution:
Use only carbonless multipart forms.
When using multipart forms with a line of glue at the top of the form, load the forms with the
glued side first.
You can load single sheet multipart forms from the sheet guide. For instructions, see “Loading
Single Sheets” on page 37. You can load continuous multipart forms in the same way as you load
ordinary continuous paper. For instructions, see “Loading Continuous Paper” on page 31.
!
Caution:
When printing on multipart forms, make sure that your software settings keep the printing
entirely within the printable area of the forms. Printing on the edge of a multipart form can
damage the print head. For information about the printable area, see “Printable area” on
page 119.
