Appendix E Using the Optional Tractor Unit The optional tractor unit allows you to use continuous paper with pin feed holes along the sides. The unit is adjustable so that the continuous paper can be any width from 4 to 10 inches. Printer Location When you use the tractor and continuous paper, you must put your LX-80 where the paper can flow freely in and out of the printer. Use a printer stand or any other arrangement that fits your working area. Just make sure that the paper coming out of the printer does not interfere with the paper going in and that the paper going in does not catch on the printer cable. Because of the cable, it is usually best for the paper that feeds into the printer to be stacked somewhat behind the printer instead of directly beneath it. Two possible setups are shown in Figures E-l and E-2. Figure E-l. Continuous paper with printer stand E-l

Appendix E
Using the Optional Tractor Unit
The optional tractor unit allows you to use continuous paper with
pin feed holes along the sides. The unit is adjustable so that the
continuous paper can be any width from
4
to
10
inches.
Printer Location
When you use the tractor and continuous paper, you must put
your
LX-80
where the paper can flow freely in and out of the printer.
Use a printer stand or any other arrangement that fits your working
area. Just make sure that the paper coming out of the printer does not
interfere with the paper going in and that the paper going in does not
catch on the printer cable. Because of the cable, it is usually best for
the paper that feeds into the printer to be stacked somewhat behind
the printer instead of directly beneath it. Two possible setups are
shown in Figures
E-l
and
E-2.
