The Judge must complete ELECTION JUDGE section on the back of the envelope and sign. The Judge should also include any info about the circumstances under which the voter is voting provisionally. DO NOT write in the COUNTY VOTER REGISTRAR section, and DO NOT check the ACCEPTED or REJECTED box.

IF THE ABOVE PROCEDURE IS DONE WRONG AT THE JBC AND A REGULAR ACCESS CODE IS ISSUED INSTEAD OF THE PROVISIONAL STUB, THAT VOTER’S VOTE WILL COUNT WHETHER IT SHOULD OR NOT.

Change JBC Printer TapeThe printer is on the left side of the JBC. It works with a special type of thermal rolled paper. Changing printer paper is similar to feeding paper into a typewriter or dot-matrix printer. Follow these steps to change printer paper:

1. Open the lid to the printer by pressing on the tab on the back of the lid and lifting. Before removing the old roll, notice how the spindle is inserted through the paper rolland observe the routing of the paper under the rubber roller.2. On the right side of the printer compartment, there is a feed lever. In order for the printer to print, it must be DOWN. In order to change the paper, you must lift it UP. Lift the lever.3. Take the old paper off the spindle (like changing paper towels) and insert the spindle into the new roll of paper. Gently peel the free end of the paper off the roll and insert the new roll into its place in the printer compartment so that the roll feeds from the bottom. The spindle tips go into the slots (see picture at right).4. Slip the free end of the paper under the rubber roller and turn the roller by hand to feed the paper through.5. After you get enough paper fed through (around the rubber roller and past the silver shield) pull some extra paper out, and thread this through the slot on the printer cover so that you have some lead when you close the lid.6. Push the feed lever DOWN and close the lid. You are ready to print.
