INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
The LaserMatrix® Floor Model Stacker (Models LM1000A115 & LM2400A100) will stack up to one full box of printed forms from a LaserMatrix printer. In the automatic mode, the stacker is controlled by the printer. When the printer prints, the stacker turns two pairs of floating helical coils which “refold” and then stack the fanfolded paper. The coils float up with the paper as the stack grows in height.

LB0-B1
The LaserMatrix Stacker solves a problem common to continuous form laser printers. The problem arises when a laser printer fuses toner to the paper. In the process, heat and pressure from the fuser iron out the perforations in the forms. The “ironed-out” forms are more difficult to refold and stack.
2 LaserMatrix Floor Model Stacker
The LaserMatrix Floor Model Stacker allows you to reliably print large jobs unattended — up to one full box of paper. The stacker handles most grades of fanfolded paper and label stock made for a laser printer.
NOTE: Due to variations in manufacturing process, quality, and composition of forms, Output Technology cannot guarantee satisfactory performance with all forms. Forms should be tested to verify satisfactory performance prior to purchasing forms.
The stacker also includes a convenient and stable platform for the printer itself.
