Manual paper feed

Cut sheets can also be fed into the printer when the cut sheet feeder
is installed. It is essential, however, that there is no paper in the
normal paper path of the printer. There are two possible modes for
manual feeding:

If the printer is ON LINE while
paper is placed into the manual
feed slot, it becomes the priority
tray for a cut sheet. In the event
of a multi-page print job, the
printer will merely take the first
sheet from the manual feed slot.
All other sheets will be taken
automatically from the current
paper tray of the cut sheet feed-
er.

If the printer is OFF LINE while paper is placed into the manual
feed slot, it serves as the manual feed tray. The sheet you have in-
serted is drawn in automatically after the time set in the Wait Time
menu.

If the Auto Select menu item is set to No, it will be necessary to
press the SEL button after each automatic feed operation. If the
Auto Select

 menu item is set to Yes, printing begins directly after

the automatic feed operation.

For the subsequent pages of a print job, the printer waits for a fur-
ther sheet of paper from the feed slot after the first sheet has been
printed and ejected. At the same time, the ALARM lamp is lit and
the SEL lamp is extinguished. Single sheets have to be inserted in
the manual feed slot right to the end of the print job.

To change back to normal printing operation, you merely need to
switch the printer back to ON LINE mode once the print job has
finished. After this, the printer will take the next sheet to be printed
from the current tray of the cut sheet feeder.
