Loading Special Paper; Multipart Forms - Epson FX-2190 Reference Manual

Loading Special Paper

Multipart forms

You can use carbonless multipart forms of up to six parts (five
copies on top of the original). Make sure you set the
paper-thickness lever to the proper position based on the number
of layers in your form. See "Adjusting the Paper-Thickness Lever"
on page 15 for instructions.
Continuous multipart forms
Except for setting the paper-thickness lever, you load continuous
multipart forms the same way as ordinary continuous paper. See
"Loading Continuous Paper" on page 17 for detailed instructions.
Note:
❏ Be sure your multipart forms do not exceed 0.46 mm (0.018 inch)
in thickness.
❏ Do not load paper that is curled or has been folded.
❏ Thick paper, such as multipart forms with five or six parts, requires
a straight paper path to avoid paper jams. Load thick paper in the
front or bottom slots.
Single-sheet multipart forms
When loading single-sheet multipart forms, you need to use the
front paper entry slot with the optional front paper guide or front
sheet guide installed on your printer, because thick paper, such
as multipart forms with five or six parts, requires a straight paper
path to avoid paper jams.
To load single-sheet multipart forms, follow the instructions in
"Loading paper in the front sheet guide or front paper guide" on
page 191.
