How to Set Your Printer Up
1. Set the H-Block Separators to the thickness of your material.
2. Center the wireframe input stacker under your material.
3. Set the feed angle of the wireframe to about 45 degrees for standard weight materials. Set it
lower for heavier materials, higher for lighter materials.
4. Set the feed fence to the width of your material plus 1/16th inch.
5. Fan (aerate) your material. Load your material (envelope flaps down and trailing, bottom edge
feeding first).
6. Set the material prop so it’s about even with the top of the stack.
7. Adjust the media thickness lever to its mid position.
8. Adjust the exit rollers so they overlap the edges of your material by 1/4 inch.
9. Print a test piece. Readjust media thickness lever to get best print quality.
10.Install the DA300 print driver and Envelope Designer™Plus application.
The following pages explain each step in a general way. The DA300 Operator Guide has complete
instructions.

Set the Feed Angle
The feed angle of the wireframe input stacker
depends on the type of material you're running:
• Heavy Material—set to a low angle (down)
• Standard material—set to the center (45
degree angle)
• Light material —set to a high angle (up)
To make the adjustment:
1. Loosen the lock knob on the wireframe
slide.
2. Move the wireframe up or down as required.
3. Tighten the lock knob to secure the
wireframe.
