Multipart forms
Your printer can print on both single-sheet and continuous
multipart forms. You can load single-sheet multipart forms in both
the front and top paper slots. You can load continuous multipart
forms from the front, rear, and bottom.
Note:
Use only carbonless multipart forms.
You can use multipart forms of up to four parts, including the
original. Make sure you set the paper thickness lever to the proper
position.
You load multipart forms the same way as single sheets or
continuous paper. For best results with continuous multipart
forms, you should use the tractors in a push/pull combination.
The paper may be loaded from the front or rear. When loading
multipart forms from the rear, an optional pull tractor is required.
When loading multipart forms from the front, two optional
tractors are required (the rear push tractor cannot be removed).
For details, see “Using Single Sheets” or “Using Continuous
Paper,” earlier in this chapter. Also be sure to set the loading
position as described in “Using Micro Adjust” in Chapter 3.

Caution:
❏
When printing multipart forms, make sure the printing
stays entirely within the printable area of the forms. (For
more information on the printable area, see the Appendix.)
❏
Use multipart forms only under normal operating
conditions.
❏
When loading single-sheet multipart forms that are bound
at the top by line glueing, use the top or front paper path.
(If you plan to print on forms that are joined at the side by
line glueing, use the front paper path.)
❏
Load multipart forms that are free of wrinkles.
