The Paper Thickness Lever You can adjust the EX to accommodate different thicknesses of paper. You need to do this when you print labels or carbon copies. Before moving the paper thickness lever, always turn off the power, open the dust cover, and move the print head to the middle of the printer, The paper thickness lever has four positions. You can identify these by looking at the catch positions in the metal plate, as shown in Figure 2-7. For normal use the lever should be in the second position away from the platen (aligned with the notch in the plate shown in Figure 2-7). For printing labels or carbon copies, move the lever to the third or fourth position away from the platen. Always return the fever to the normal position when you resume printing on normal paper.
