Paper Thickness Lever Positions

Setting the paper thickness lever allows the printer to
accommodate various thicknesses of paper. The paper
thickness lever is located under the printer cover. You can
select one of nine positions identified by the scale next to
the lever.
Use the following table to set the paper thickness lever to
match the thickness of your paper.
Paper type
Ordinary (single sheets or continuous paper)
Thin paper
Carbonless multi-part forms with:
2 parts (original + 1 copy)
3 parts (original + 2 copies)
4 parts (original + 3 copies)
5 parts (original + 4 copies)
6 parts (original + 5 copies)

Note:
If the printed image is smeared, you may need to set the paper
thickness lever one position higher to improve print quality.
If the printed image is faint or has many gaps, you may need to set
the paper thickness lever one position lower to improve print quality.

Paper Handling

Loading Multi-Part Forms
You can use carbonless multi-part forms of up to six parts (five
copies in addition to the original). Make sure you set the
paper thickness lever to the proper position based on the
number of layers in your form.
For best results with thick paper such as multi-part forms,
paper thickness
select a straight or almost straight paper path. It is best to load
lever
multi-part forms using:
Except for setting the paper thickness lever, you load multi-
part forms the same way you load ordinary continuous paper.
For details, see the sections on loading continuous paper later
in this chapter.
Note:
Be sure your multi-part forms do not exceed 0.018 inch (0.46 mm) in
thickness for the printable area and up to 0.035 inch (0.9 mm) for the
perforated edges.

Loading Continuous Paper with Labels

When printing on labels, use only the type of labels that are

mounted on continuous backing sheets with sprocket holes for
2 through 6
use with a tractor feeder. Do not try to print on single sheets

with labels because the printer may not feed labels on a shiny
backing sheet properly.
Thick paper, such as continuous paper with labels, requires a
straight or almost straight paper path. You can load labels in
the front (push tractor or pull tractor) or bottom (pull tractor)
paper slot; however, for best results, use the tractor in the pull
position and load paper in the front or bottom paper slot.
