Cut-Sheet Feeders Switching between continuous paper and the cut-sheet feeder This printer allows you to switch easily between the cut-sheet feeder and the tractor-feeding system without removing either the feeder or the continuous-paper supply. Switching to continuous paper 1. Make sure continuous paper is mounted on the tractor properly. 2. If a single sheet is in the paper path, hold down the ALT button and press the EJECT button to eject it. 3. Place the paper-release lever in the front or rear push-tractor position.

feeder
This printer allows you to switch easily between the cut-sheet feeder

or the continuous-paper supply.
Switching to continuous paper

Make sure continuous paper is mounted on the tractor properly.
2.
If a single sheet is in the paper path, hold down the
ALT
button
and press the
EJECT
button to eject it.
3.
