Switching back to continuous paper It is also easy to switch back to printing with continuous paper. Before switching back to continuous paper, make sure that the printer is off line. 1. Press the PAPER SELECT button until the display shows Tractor. If a single sheet is loaded, it is ejected automatically and continuous paper is fed to the loading position. Remove the ejected single sheet from the printer. 2. Slide the edge guides together so that they meet at about the middle of the paper's width. Note: When using continuous paper, always make sure that the edge guides are pushed together. Paper Handling 2-21
