❏ If continuous labels are loaded in the printer, remove them before switching to single-sheet printing.
See “Tear off and eject labels” on page 51 for more information.
❏ If the tractor is in the pull position, remove any continuous paper from it before switching to
single-sheet printing. See “Removing paper from the pull tractor” on page 38 for more information.

the tear-off position. Then tear off the printed pages.
