LQ-590II/LQ-590IIN/LQ-2090II/LQ-2090IIN User's Guide Using two tractors in a push/pull combination Using two tractors at the same time is recommended for printing on continuous pre-printed forms, multipart forms, and labels, and for printing high quality graphics. To reduce paper jams and improve continuous paper feeding, you can install the optional pull tractor unit. LQ-590II/LQ-590IIN: C933761 LQ-2090II/LQ-2090IIN: C933791 Follow these steps to use two tractors at the same time: 1. Install one tractor in the front or rear push position as described in "Installing the tractor in the front push position" on page 26 or "Installing the tractor in the rear push position" on page 22. 2. Load continuous paper using the front or rear push tractor as described in "Loading paper with the front push tractor" on page 27 or "Loading paper with the rear push tractor" on page 22. 3. Set the paper release lever to the front or rear push position, depending on the position of your push tractor. 4. Turn on the printer and press the Load/Eject button to advance the paper to the top-of-form position. Then press the LF/FF button until the perforation between the first and second pages is even with the top of the printer's ribbon. ! Caution: Never use the knob to move the paper; this may damage the printer or cause it to lose the top-of-form position. 5. Install the other tractor in the pull position as described in "Installing the tractor in the pull position" on page 31. 6. Fit the holes of the paper over the pins on both sprockets of the pull tractor. ! Caution: Do not pull up the paper by hand to fit it on the pull tractor; this may damage the printer. Press the LF/FF button to move the paper. 7. Set the paper release lever to the pull tractor position. Then use the Micro Adjust function (described in "Using the Micro Adjust Function" on page 55) to remove any slack in the paper between the push and pull tractors. 8. Move the paper release lever back to the position you set in step 3. Paper Handling 40
