Re: [Digital BW] 1160 Paper Feed Question

2004-01-18 by bruce

Place the paper in the printer and tap the paper eject
button ONCE(the second button of the three buttons)the
paper will load and stop at the correct print
position.  Then intiate the file printing from the
computer.  It's that simple.
