Paper Handling Problem The penter does not fed continuous paper properly (continued). Solution The paper jams or does not feed smoothly into the printer. There may be some obstacle, such as a cable, in the way of the paper or something on top of the paper supply. See page 2 - 2 The paper supply may be too far from the printer. Position your paper supply within 3.28 feet (1 meter) of the printer. The paper supply may not be aligned with the front or rear tractor. See page 2-3. The rear cover may be open. Close the rear cover before trying to feed the paper. The paper may be caught on the paper separator. Be sure the edge of the first page emerges below the paper separator. The paper may not be mounted on the sprockets correctly. Check the paper on the sprockets to be sure the paper's sprocket holes fit correctly over the sprockets. Be sure the paper on the sprockets is not ripped or jammed. If something is wrong with the paper, tear off the paper below the tractor and press the FORM FEED button to eject the remaining paper. Then load fresh paper, making sure the first sheet has a clean, straight edge. The holes on the sides of the paper may not be aligned with each other. Reposition the paper on the tractor pins.
