Setting the Paper
Do the following to feed the paper into the printer:
1 Press the FORM FEED button on the control panel to feed the paper
into the printer.
2
Lower the paper bail. An empty printer autofeeds new paper approxi-
mately 0.1” (0.25 cm) beyond the top of the paper bail.
Note : The ideal distance to feed paper beyond the paper bail may vary
due to environmental conditions (such as humidity) and specific aspects
of certain paper. Use the green thumb wheel to position the paper to a
desired distance per your conditions.
Note : If your paper has a preprinted logo on every page, make sure the
print head is below the preprinted logo. If not, you can adjust the posi-
tion of the paper, either by pressing the
LINE FEED button, or by us-
ing the green thumb wheel.
