Multipart Paper
Multi-parts form demands special consideration because of itscomplexity. Adherence to
tolerances and environmental conditions is more critical than with simple part. The width
tolerances and storage conditions specified for simple part also apply to multipart paper. There
are many different types of multipart paper available; use only snap-out or top-glued forms. Form
sets must be tested prior to regular use.
Side-glued forms glued on both sides are not acceptable. This type of form can trap air bubbles
and are thus more susceptible to skewing. Side glued forms glued on only one side may be used,
though they must be operationally tested prior to regular use.
Envelopes
Envelopes should be tested prior to use. The minimum length of the envelopes that can be
inserted through the manual entry slot is 4" (102 mm).
Note:
For the Paper Specifications, see Appendix B, "Technical Characteristics".
The Paper Paths
One of the main features of your new printer are the many paper paths through which you can
load the paper. According to the type of paper you are using and the paper feed options you are
using, you can define the following paper paths.
For continuous forms the paper path is defined by the paper feeding device used and the position
of this device on the printer.
Warning:
To ensure proper detection of the paper feeding devices by the printer, always
power-off the printer before mounting a new device or changing the location of a
device.
