Using the push and pull tractors in combination
To improve continuous paper feeding and reduce paper jams,
you can use two tractors at the same time. This is especially
helpful for printing on continuous pre-printed forms,
multi-part forms, or labels, and for printing high quality
graphics. When using two tractors in combination, you can
load paper in the front paper slot onto the front push tractor
and the pull tractor, or load paper in the rear paper slot onto
the rear push tractor and the pull tractor.
Combination
Description
rear push
and pull
To use the rear push tractor with the pull tractor, you
need to remove the standard tractor that comes in
the front push position and install it in the pull
position.
Note:
Because thick multi-part forms require a straight
paper path, load them in the front slot.
Caution:
Do not load continuous paper with labels onto
the rear push tractor even when it is used in
combination with the pull tractor. If you load
continuous paper with labels onto the rear
push/pull tractor, the labels may come off their
backing sheet inside the printer and cause a
paper jam.
front push
and pull
To use the front push tractor with the pull tractor,
you need to purchase the optional pull tractor
(C80032
]
) and install it in the pull position.
Note:
For more information on using two tractors in a push and pull
combination, see page 2-30.
