Do you want to switch between printing on single sheets and
continuous paper without removing the paper supply? Will
you tear off continuous paper sheet-by-sheet? Use the tractor
in the push tractor position. (The printer comes with the
tractor installed in this position.) See the following section.
❏
Are you printing on labels, multipart forms, or other
documents that require a precise print position? Use the
tractor as a pull tractor. See “Printing with the pull tractor”
on page 2-17 for instructions.
Printing with the push tractor
When using the push tractor, it is a good idea to set the Auto tear
off feature in the Default Setting mode to
On
. See “About Your
Printer’s Default Settings” on page 2-3.
Follow these steps to load continuous paper using the push
tractor:
1. Make sure the printer is turned off. Remove the printer cover
and the paper guide and place the paper-release lever in the
continuous paper position.
