The first thing you would need to do would be to ensure you have two sets of tractors. The second set of tractors is an option not on the standard printer.
You can fit the second set of tractors to the front or rear of the printer

You can select either of the two tractors in the following ways;

1. Via the control pannel menu
2. If printing from Windows by selecting the appropriate paper path when printing
3. If you are able to insert control codes into your data stream you can use escape commands to change the paper path
   

Well the simplest solution is to make sure you have the correct size of paper.

For example, if you are trying to print a legal size page (14 inches) onto a letter size page (11 inches) that is exactly what you would get.

Maybe you won't be able to use A4 paper, which I think is 3/4 inch longer than letter-size 8 1/2 x 11, according to the sizing inside the paper tray of my OKIPAGE 10e. My computer, using Windows 98, doesn't list OKIPAGE 10e among the printers I can use with my computer. Yet, Windows 98 has incorrectly identified my printer as Okidata OL-600e for some reason. I'm surprised my printer works at all with Windows 98. Thanks for detailing your question as "when I print a test page (from the printer controls), because I was unaware I could print a test page using printer controls, so I started pressing anything that looked like an electronic button on the top of my printer. I believe this trial and error eventually helped me to get rid of an unwanted 1 inch wide bar, from top to bottom of 8 1/2 x 11 pages about 2 inches from the right-hand-side of my pages. This was progressively getting worse. I thought I was going to have to buy a new printer. I bought this printer used, and without instruction booklet, so I used your info. about printer controls and started pressing electronic buttons. It's amazing, because after I made about 35 copies, now the annoying 1 inch wide black bar is gone!
