Feeds up to 150 sheets of paper, 25 plain bond envelopes, or 30 
postcards into the printer without reloading. You can also load a 
stack of single-sheet multipart forms up to 0.59 inch (15 mm) 
thick in this feeder.

Connects to the high-capacity cut-sheet feeder to create a 
double-bin cut-sheet feeder. You can load up to 50 sheets of 
ordinary single-sheet paper in the second-bin cut-sheet feeder.

Improves continuous paper handling and reduces the chance of 
paper jams. You can also use this tractor as a front push tractor. 
Using a pull tractor in combination with a push tractor is 
especially useful for printing on continuous preprinted forms, 
multipart forms, labels, and for printing high-quality graphics.

Allows you to use your printer with 8.5-inch roll paper like that 
used with telex machines.
