This printer is equipped with paper sensors, so you do not have to perform any special procedure to align the location from which printing should start. Simply insert the paper into the printer and the sensor locates the top of the paper. The paper will be moved automatically into position for printing.
Make sure that the printer is plugged in and turned on.Check that the RELEASE indicator on the control panel is lit. If the indicator is
not lit, press the RELEASE button until the indicator lights up.
Place a piece of the paper onto the printer's document table and slide its right
edge into the printer. Printing will be performed on the side of the paper that is facing up (the one you can see), starting from the top of the paper.
Important!
Do not use wrinkled or curled paper. In case of multiple paper, neatly align the
sheets.
When inserting the paper into the printer, make sure that there are at least 3 cm
between the top edge of the paper and the print start position mark on the printer. Otherwise the paper sensor may not be able to correctly locate the top of the paper.
At least 3cm
Print start position mark
Push the right edge of the paper into the printer until it stops. At that time, the
PAPER OUT indicator will go out, and the printer mechanism will automatically align the paper for printing from the top.
