Stick a Post-It note to the top of the page and use it as a handle to 
pull the paper through.  
My method, also using Post-It notes, is to cut the glued strip off two of them,
fold each glued strip over on itself, glued side in, then sandwich the top 
of the paper between the ends of these two tabs, aligning each tab with one 
of the rubber rollers on the platen bar.  The tab sticks up about 3/4 of an
inch above the paper, so when the printer driver rolls the paper backward 
before printing, the tab is still between the roller and the platen, guiding 
the paper through.
