Selecting a Paper Feeding Method Your printer provides four paper paths so you can print on almost any type of paper: l Choose the top paper guide to print on single sheets. l Install the tractor unit in the appropriate location to load continuous paper from the front, rear, or bottom. You can mount the tractor unit in three different positions to suit your particular needs: use it as a front push tractor, rear push tractor, or pull tractor. Once you select a feeding method, you simply set the paper-release lever, load your paper, and print. You can even print on single sheets without removing your continuous paper supply. Also see Chapter 4 for information on using an optional additional tractor unit. Setting the paper-release lever You set the paper-release lever to select the active paper path in your printer.
