Problem Continuous paper does not feed properly. When the LOAD/EJECT button is pressed, the platen does not rotate and paper does not feed. When the LOAD/EJECT button is pressed, the platen rotates but paper does not feed. Solution You may be trying to feed paper using the control panel buttons while the printer is on line (ON LINE light on). Press the ON LINE button once to take the printer off line, then try feeding paper. After feeding paper, press the ON LINE button again to set the printer on line. See Chapter 3. The paper release lever may be pushed back to the single-sheet position. When using the push tractor, be sure the paper release lever is pulled forward to the continuous paper position. See Chapter 2. Continuous paper may have already been in the paper path. (In this case, the paper feeds backward to the standby position.) Press the LOAD/EJECT button again to load the paper.
