Selecting A Paper Feeding Method; Setting The Paper-Release Lever - Epson 5000+ User Manual

Selecting a Paper Feeding Method

Your printer can feed single sheets from the top and front and
continuous paper from the rear, front, and bottom. Also, you
can use the tractor unit for continuous paper as either a push
