Loading Multi-Part Forms
You can use carbonless multi-part forms of up to six parts (five
copies on top of the original). Make sure you set the paper
thickness lever to the proper position based on the number of
layers in your form.
Except for setting the paper thickness lever, you load
multi-part forms the same way as ordinary paper. For details,
see the sections on loading continuous paper later in this
chapter.
