I'm awfully sorry to have to tell you this, but the manual is wrong. I had a VersaPoint for about a week, and we tried everything to get the single-sheet feed to work. We finally called tech support (not only for Freedom Scientific, but the company who actually makes the Versapoints - I forget who they are) and they both said they didn't understand why those instructions were even in the manual, because the embosser was designed for, and only operates well with tractor-feed paper. I returned it and bought an Everest instead. I've been very happy with it. One of the best parts is being able to re-use sheets of paper - sometimes for testing margins I've run the same sheet through 2 or 3 times. It even does well with ordinary notebook paper. Besides, the time I had the Versapoint reminded me how truly much I loathe tractor-feed paper.
