Paper Handling
Printing on Continuous Paper
Your printer can handle continuous paper with the tractor.
Depending on where you position the tractor, you can use it as a
pull tractor or a push tractor. The following guidelines can help
you decide where to position the tractor:
❏
Do you want to switch between printing on single sheets and
continuous paper without removing the paper supply? Will
you tear off continuous paper sheet-by-sheet? Use the tractor
in the push tractor position. (The printer comes with the
tractor installed in this position.) See the following section.
❏
Are you printing on labels, multipart forms, or other
documents that require a precise print position? Use the
tractor as a pull tractor. See “Printing with the pull tractor”
for instructions.
Printing with the push tractor
When using the push tractor, it is a good idea to set the Auto tear
off feature in the Default Setting mode to
On
. See “About Your
Printer’s Default Settings”.
Note:
The illustrations in this manual are from LX-300+II. LX-1170II is wider
than LX-300+II. However, the explanations are the same.
Follow these steps to load continuous paper using the push
tractor:
