3.3.07 Paper Park
General Information
Paper park allows you to switch from continuous feed paper to single-sheet paper without removing the
continuous feed paper from the printer. The continuous feed paper will be retracted from the platen and
down into the printer housing without disengaging it from the built-in tractor.
After the single-sheet paper is printed, pull the bail lever forward and the continuous feed paper will move
back into the print position.
Paper park cannot be used when the optional pull tractor is installed.
Procedure
1. Tear off any printed pages.
2. Make sure the printer is selected. The SELECT lamp must be lit.
3. Press TOF/PARK.
4. The paper will retract from the paper path.
5. Move the paper selection to the single sheet position (towards the back of the printer).
6. Load the single sheet paper.

To return to continuous feed printing, perform the following procedure.
1. Move the paper selection lever to the continuous form position (to the front of the printer).
2. Pull the bail lever forward.
3. The paper will advance to the loading position.
4. Push the bail lever back and adjust the top of form (if necessary)
