Printing on Special Paper Multi-part forms You can use carbonless continuous multi-part forms of two parts (one original plus one copy). Set the paper-thickness lever to position 0 when printing on multi-part forms. Load multi-part forms with the optional push tractor only. You load multi-part continuous paper the same way as ordinary continuous paper. For details, see "Loading continuous paper" on page 2-7. Use only multi-part forms joined with spot-gluing that is free of wrinkles and waves. Never print on multi-part forms joined with metal staples, tape, or continuous gluing. If you need to adjust the top-of-form position, use your application software or change the default top-of-form position as described in Chapter 3. You may have to experiment to get the setting you want. Labels You can use the push tractor to print on labels. For best results, pay attention to these special considerations: Always choose labels mounted on a continuous backing sheet with sprocket holes for use with a tractor. Do not try to print labels on single sheets because labels on a shiny backing sheet almost always slip a little. Always set the paper-thickness lever to position 1. Never feed labels backward. They can easily peel off the backing and jam the printer. Because labels are especially sensitive to temperature and humidity, use them under normal operating conditions only. Paper Handling 2-17

Printing on Special Paper
Multi-part forms
You can use carbonless continuous multi-part forms of two parts
(one original plus one copy).
Set the paper-thickness lever to position 0 when printing on
multi-part forms.
Load multi-part forms with the optional push tractor only. You
load multi-part continuous paper the same way as ordinary
continuous paper. For details, see “Loading continuous paper”
on page 2-7.
Use only multi-part forms joined with spot-gluing that is free of
wrinkles and waves. Never print on multi-part forms joined
with metal staples, tape, or continuous gluing.
If you need to adjust the top-of-form position, use your
application software or change the default top-of-form position
as described in Chapter 3. You may have to experiment to get
the setting you want.
Labels
You can use the push tractor to print on labels. For best results, pay
attention to these special considerations:
Always choose labels mounted on a continuous backing sheet
with sprocket holes for use with a tractor. Do not try to print
labels on single sheets because labels on a shiny backing sheet
almost always slip a little.
Always set the paper-thickness lever to position 1.
Never feed labels backward. They can easily peel off the backing
and jam the printer.
Because labels are especially sensitive to temperature and
humidity, use them under normal operating conditions only.
