Manual Paper Path
Cut sheets and envelopes may be printed one at a time using the
manual paper path. The manual paper path guides snap onto the
front part of the rear cover allowing easy loading of cut sheets and
envelopes.
When printing cut sheets, allow at least a 1/6-inch margin at the
top and a 1/2-inch margin at the bottom of the page. Printing
closer than 1/2 inch to the bottom of the page, will cause a
paper-out fault. At 6 LPI, a paper-out fault will occur after the
64th line.
For this reason, sending line feeds to advance paper to the next
form will not work with cut sheets in the manual paper path.
Also, printing on the very top of a cut sheet may cause
inconsistent print quality on the first line of the form.
To use the manual paper path:
With the printer offline,
Press Park/Path to park the currently loaded form.
Press and release
Park/Path
until
Path:Manual
appears in the LCD.
Path :Manual
Set the paper tension adjustment to 2.
See “Adjust Paper Tension” earlier in this guide.
Adjust the paper guides for width and position.
If the printer is set for 0 left margin and 0 left print reference,
lining up the arrow on the left paper guide with the arrow on the
top door will result in a 1/2-inch left margin.
