Using Single Sheets Reloading during printing When you print a document more than one page long using single sheets of paper, there are two ways your software can allow you to load a new sheet at the end of a printed page: l If your software sends characters in a continuous stream, the printer stops printing when it reaches the bottom of the paper. When this happens, the page ejects and the ON LINE light goes off automatically. l If your software handles printing page by page, it probably stops sending characters at the end of a page and prompts you to insert more paper. In this case, the ON LINE light may remain on. If it does, the first thing you should do is press the ON LINE button once to take the printer off line. In either case, once the ON LINE light is off, remove the sheet that has just been printed and load a new sheet as before. Press ON LINE to start printing the next page. Paper Handling 2-7

Using Single Sheets
Reloading during printing
When you print a document more than one page long using single
sheets of paper, there are two ways your software can allow you to
load a new sheet at the end of a printed page:
l
If your software sends characters in a continuous stream, the
printer stops printing
when
it reaches
the
bottom of the paper.
When
this happens,
the
page ejects and the
ON LINE
light goes
off automatically.
l
If your software handles printing page by page, it probably
stops sending characters at the end of a page and prompts you
to insert more paper. In this case, the
ON LINE
light may remain
on. If it does, the first thing you should do is press
the ON LINE
button once to take the printer off line.
In either case, once the
ON LINE
light is off, remove the sheet that
has just been printed and load a new sheet as before. Press
ON LINE
to start printing
the next
page.
