3.2 Loading Paper
There are three ways to load paper for the LA75 Plus which are illustrated in
the cross-section diagrams later in this section.
Load pinfeed paper from the back of the printer (Factory default).
Hand feed single sheets

from the back of the printer.
Load pinfeed paper through the printer’s bottom slot.
Note: Bottom Loading is intended for printing applications using forward
paper motion only. Typically, bottom loading is most appropriate for loading
"difficult" paper (for example "sticky" labels). It is the least frequently used
of the three loading methods.
Note: Using the printer’s bottom slot requires a special printer table or stand.
Contact your Digital sales representative for ordering information.
For applications requiring reverse paper motion to achieve printing functions
such as bolding, underlining, and superscripting or subscripting, load the
paper from the back of the printer. The new LA75 Plus features described
in Section 3.2.1.1, Viewing the Last Printed Line and Section 3.2.1.2,
Document on Demand are only possible with Rear Loading.
Table 3–1 illustrates Digital’s recommendations on using the three methods.
