PAPER INSTALLATION AND USE
This chapter describes instructions for printing such as selecting paper types,
adjusting the printing gap, and installing paper.
SELECTION OF PAPER
Your printer accepts any of the following types of paper:
• Single sheets (cut forms) and stationary
Use the friction feed or the optional Automatic Sheet Feeder.
• Fanfold forms
Fanfold forms have holes along the sides and perforations between the
sheets. They are also called sprocket forms, continuous forms, or just plain
“computer paper”.
Printing on or near the perforations of continuous fanfold forms may reduce
printing quality, misalign the fanfold forms, or cause a paper jam.
• Multi-part forms
You can use multi-part forms that have up to three parts including the
original.
Use pressure sensitive multi-part forms with both side edges glued and a
difference in thickness of 0.05mm or less between the side edges.
Figure 3-1 shows the recommended print area for each type of papers.
