making sure that the paper will not extend above the top of the

tractors. Then close the tractor door.

Note: The left tractor position is not adjustable. If it is necessary to

adjust where printing begins, refer to “Aligning Print” in the

“Daily Operation” section of this manual.

5. Now position the paper in the right tractor in the same fashion. If

necessary, the position of the right tractor may be adjusted. To do so,

move the lever on the side of the tractor down to unlock the tractor

and slide the tractor sideways on the shafts. If necessary, the paper

guides between the tractors may be slid in either direction to

accommodate the form width. Make sure that the guides are spaced

evenly between the tractors.

After the paper is placed in the tractor and the door is closed, position

the tractor far enough to the right so that there is no buckle in the

paper between the tractors, but not so tight that the holes in the paper

are distorted. Lock the tractor in place by returning the lever to the

up position.

7. Press the LOAD button.
