2. Features
General
This section guides you through the features of the PS20/30. The component names
introduced in this section are used throughout this manual.
Please refer to Figure 4 below as you read about the features of the PS20/30.
PS20/30 Iss. 1. Page 7
Figure 4: Features of the PS20/30
Folder components
Form guides
The form guides keep the forms aligned so the feed roller feeds each one squarely. The
right-hand form guide is adjustable to accommodate various sheet widths.
Feed roller
The feed roller provides reliable single-sheet form feeding into the folding area. The feed
roller requires no adjustment.
In-feed tray
The in-feed tray holds the stack of forms allowing them to be fed by the feed roller. The
spring-loaded tray presses the forms against the feed roller, automatically providing the
correct pressure to allow only one form at a time to be fed into the folder.
Fold plates
These provide for simple "V" (centre or half) folds, "Z" (zigzag) folds or "C" (letter) folds.
The fold plates are adjustable to accommodate various form lengths.
Fold rollers
The fold rollers work in conjunction with the fold plates to produce folds. The rollers feed
the form into and out of the fold plates. The top roller is removable, which aids recovery
of mishandled forms (see page 29).
2. Features

Appendix A - Form Loading
Guide
Many variables must be considered when setting up the folder/sealer, and loading forms
for processing. These include the form design, type of fold and condition of forms (if
they are curled or not).
This appendix attempts to address these variables in a way that helps you understand
the best way to set up your PS20/30 and to load the documents properly.
Figure 18 shows acceptable (flat or curl down), and unacceptable (curl up) curl
conditions. In some cases, forms that are curled up can be processed by loading them
differently.
