Operating the Cut Sheet Feeder After stacking paper in the cut sheet feeder, turn on the printer and make sure that the ON LINE light is on. When the printer is on line, a new sheet of paper loads automatically whenever a printable character or line feed command is sent to the printer. Paper out condition When the printer is on line and receives print data from the computer, the first sheet loads automatically. Subsequent sheets load automatically as necessary. l In the cut sheet feeder mode, the PAPER OUT light goes on while a sheet of paper is being loaded, but the printer remains on line. l When the specified paper bin is empty, the printer automatically goes off line and the PAPER OUT light goes on. To resume printing, add more paper and press the ON LINE button. Note: If you turn off your printer during the time the printer detects a paper out or paper jam condition, any data remaining in the printer's buffer is discarded.
