1. Remove the Shipping
Hardware
There are 4 screws, identified by red tags, that
secure the printer base to the inside mechanism,
and tie restraints that secure the Paper Stacking
Chains. The upper 2 shipping screws have wing-
heads which tighten a bracket against the platen to
prevent it from bumping
against the hammer bank.
The lower 2 shipping
screws fasten from
underneath, near the
front of the printer
cabinet. Remove all of
these restraints, including
the brackets beneath the
wing-head screws.

2. Set Up Paper Stacking Chains
Paper exits the print area through a set of passive Paper Stacking Chains
that help fold and stack printed forms uniformly. Secure two of the
chains to the wire guide and two to the rear paper guide so that the
paper can be fed between them. Make sure chains are not tangled.
