assembly.
19. Lower the forms thickness lever, and set it to match the paper thickness.
(The A-B-C scale corresponds approximately to 1-, 3-, and 6-part paper
thickness.)
NOTE:
Do not set the forms thickness lever too tightly; excessive friction can
cause paper jams, ribbon jams (with potential for ribbon damage),
smeared ink, or wavy print.
20. Press STOP to remove the “LOAD PAPER” fault message from the
display.
21. Press FORM FEED several times to make sure the paper feeds properly
beyond the tractors and over the lower paper guide. Feed sufficient paper
to ensure the paper stacks correctly.
22. Close the printer cover.
23. Close the cabinet door.
24. Press START to place the printer in online mode and resume printing.
NOTE:
For cabinet models with the power paper stacker installed, go to
“Power Paper Stacker Option” in the next section. For all other
cabinet models, go to “Set The Top-of-Form” on page 83.
