About Paper Feeding and Paper Paths
The DIGITAL Matrix Printer LA400plus is designed for use with a wide range of paper types,
from continuous form (simple part, multipart or adhesive labels) to cut sheets (simple part or
multipart) and envelopes.
Several paper feeding devices are available depending on the type of paper you intend to use.
Paper Path for Continuous Forms
A paper path is mainly defined by:
– the paper feeding device used
– the position of the paper feeding device on the printer
Two paper feeding devices are available:
– the Push tractor unit (standard)
– the Pull tractor unit (option)
You can mount the feeding devices in two positions:
– the Front position (under the front slot cover)
– the Rear position (under the rear slot cover)
The most common paper path uses the Push tractor unit mounted in the Front position and is
compatible with most of the paper types. This paper path, called Push-Front, is factory set in the
printer as the path to be used at first power-on.The following instructions explain how to set up
this paper path.
Feeding Cut Sheets and Envelopes
The Cut sheet stand of your DIGITAL Matrix Printer LA400plus defines the Manual paper path
available for cut sheets and envelopes.
Note: For more information about feeding different types of paper, see Chapter 3 "Handling
Different Types of Paper" of the User Guide.
