CSF (Cut Sheet Feeder)
Microline 300 Series Printers ONLY
Connecting the CSF
The Cut Sheet Feeder is an option. Two versions are available: a single-bin and a dual bin.
The Menu Groups you will see when working with the menu depend on which version of the option you install with
your printer.
The difference between a printer with a USB port and a printer without a USB port is the location of the CSF
connector.
Printers with the USB port have a CSF connector on the top, back, left-hand corner of the printer.
You must lift the small door to access the CSF connector.
Printers without the USB port have a CSF connector on the back of the printer.
