The bulge of the opened passbook should be as flat as possi-

ble to ensure trouble-free transportation into the printer.

Place the passbook on the right-hand side of the document

support with the page to be printed facing up. The passbook

must be entered into the opening of the chute. Once in the

chute the printer mechanism will take the book. At this point

you may release the book, as the printer will align it against

it's right stop position and load it into the printer.

If the automatic document alignment cannot properly

grasp stiff or bent passbooks, you should place the

passbook manually at the stop at the right-hand side

of the document support and insert it.
