Manual Feeding

1. If you have tractor feed paper loaded in the printer and have a printed document still in the printer, press the TEAR OFF button to feed the paper forward to the tear-off position. Tear off the document and press the TEAR OFF button again to feed the continuous paper backward to the loading position.

2. Press the LOAD/EJECT button to feed the continuous paper out of the printer and into the standby position. The paper should be still attached to the tractor but no longer in the paper path.

3. Push the paper-release lever back to the single-sheet position.

4. Move the edge guide until you feel it click into place above the arrow mark on the paper guide. You can slide the edge guide to the left in 1/10 inch increments to increase the size of the left margin on your printout.

5. Align the left edge of the paper with the edge guide and insert the paper firmly until it meets resistance. The printer loads the paper automatically

6. Invoke printing from your software.
