4-1. Paper Used

If using folded or curled paper, flatten first prior to use.

Make sure that the printing ink on the paper has dried completely prior to use.

If used without the ink completely dried, the folding roller or paper may become dirty.

Use paper that has been cut at right angles.

If not cut at right angles, problems such as folding misalignment may occur.

Fan paper just copied or printed well prior

to use.

Paper just copied or printed contains considerable static electricity, and if not fanned well, problems such as double-feed will result.

Do not stack paper on the paper feed tray

with the left and right sides of the paper unaligned or some sheets protruding out.

If the paper is protruding on the left or right side, the paper size detection sensor will not function normally and detect the paper size accurately.

Paper

<Paper protruding at

Do not stack paper on the paper feed tray

with the lead and trail edges unaligned or some sheets protruding out.

If the paper is protruding at the lead or trail edge, paper will not be fed stably, resulting in problems such as paper feed e rror and folding misalignment.

In some cases, paper may not be fed smoothly into the folding plate due to the environment (temperature, humidity), paper thickness, paper type, paper states, and processing speed, etc., and as a result, the paper may not be folded properly. In such cases, lower the processing speed, or improve the paper states before use.

MAINTENANCE

5-1

1. CLEANING THE UNIT

Dirty folding rollers and suction belts can cause problems such as folding misalignment, and paper feed errors. Adherence of paper dust near sensors will also cause misdetection. Therefore clean periodically. Clean the paper feed inlet sensor and paper ejection outlet sensors with canned air recommended for computers, key boards, and similar products.

Prior to cleaning, be sure to disconnect the power cord plug from the outlet. After cleaning, make sure that the areas that were cleaned are completely dry before

resuming paper folding operations.

WARNING

Do not use ﬂammable sprays or solvent inside or near the unit (e.g. when cleaning the unit).

Such ﬂammable gas may ignite and cause a ﬁre or combustion. Take precautions against ﬁre and ensure ventilation when using alcohol, and store the alcohol in a safe place after use. Also note that use of other solvents can damage the rubber rollers and resin inside the unit, resulting in malfunctions.
