User's Manual

To help you check the position of the paper thickness lever, the
orange
MULTI-PART
light on the control panel comes on if the
lever is set to position 4 or higher.
WARNING:
Always return the lever to position 2 when
you go back to printing on ordinary paper. Continuous
printing with the lever set at a position higher than 2 can
shorten the life of the print head.
Printing past the edge of envelopes, multi-part forms,
labels, or thicker-than-normal paper can damage the print
head.
Multi-part Forms
With the built-in tractor unit, your printer can print on continuous
multi-part forms. You can use multi-part forms that have up to four
parts including the original. Make sure you set the paper thickness
lever to the proper position.
Except for the paper thickness lever setting, you load multi-part
paper the same way as continuous paper. For details, see Loading
Continuous Paper in this chapter. Also see Adjusting the Loading
Position and Page Length in Chapter 3.
