Epson LQ-860 User Manual - Page 48

Selecting a Paper Feeding Method The paper release lever on the LQ-860 has three positions for use with the various methods of paper feeding. When you switch the paper path, you must change the lever to the correct position to ensure smooth operation. The lever has three icons beside it. Each icon indicates its paper feeding method. Single-sheet position: When you want to load single sheets from both the paper guide and the optional cut sheet feeder, set the lever in this position (all the way back). Push tractor position: When you load continuous paper with the built-in push tractor, set the lever in this position (in the middle). Pull tractor position: When you load continuous paper with the optional pull tractor, set the lever in this PULL position (all the way forward). Even when you use the built-in push tractor at the same time, you must set the lever to this position. Only select this position if you are using the optional pull tractor. 2-2 Paper Handling
