3 Paper Installation Guide 

The printer can handle either single sheets or continuous forms. Single sheets, also called cut sheets, include 

envelopes and non-continuous, multipart forms. Continuous forms include labels and multipart forms fed into 

the printer using the forms tractors. The printer is able to print 1~7 plies multipart paper.

Do not load paper that has been folded or is damaged, wrinkled, or curled. 

Adjusting the Print Gap Lever 

The print gap lever is on the right side of the printer. Take care to adjust the print gap lever to a suitable 

position whenever you change the number of copies being printed. Using the wrong print gap may cause print 

head damage or paper jams.
