Folder Overview
Rotation
Reference Information
To help you understand the Universal Folder, some of the commonly
used terms are explained below.
Folded Print Dimensions
(a) Fan Fold
This is the first accordion fold.
(b) Cross Fold
This is the second fold and it is at a right angle to the first fold.
(m) Margin
Binding margin for archive and punching
(p) Panel
Total length (a+m)
When the Optional Bridge Rotation
feature is installed, the print orientation
can be turned, or rotated 90 degrees, in a
clockwise direction. This will be
performed automatically to facilitate
folding specific output package styles.
Maximum print dimensions for this
operation are given below.
X = only media rolls 22” - 594mm - 24” - 620mm
Y = with title block location 1 and 2 between 409 and 460
Y = with title block location 3 and 4 only media rolls 17”- 420mm -18”
Feeding direction
X
Y
Media
The folder was designed to operate with Bond (ordinary), 18-22 lbs (75100gsm) paper. Paper that does not meet this specification will result
in poor folding performance and an increased occurrence of jams.
All non-Bond (ordinary paper) Media delivered by the printer will not
be folded, but it will be automatically bypassed and stacked on the
bridge.
Mylar or Polyester Film should not be allowed to enter the folder. This
m
a
p
b
will cause a jam and may result in equipment damage.
The number and placement of folds is based on the type of fold selected
and the paper size. Refer to the Folding Style Reference Charts for
details on how the folds will look.
September 200188XX Series Folder Operator Manual 4
Printing
Title Block Input Position
The prints exit from the printer in two different ways. The term 'leading'
is used for the print edge that exits the printer into the Bridge:
LEL (Long Edge Leading)SEL (Short Edge Leading)
111128
Feeding
After the Bridge Transport (with or without rotation), the copy will be
fed into the folder in two ways. The term 'feeding' is used for when the
print exits the bridge and goes into the folder: The 'C'/A2 size print
exits the printer Long Edge Leading and with the optional rotation. It
enters the Folder with Short Edge Feeding. This is the only example
where a distinction between leading and feeding is important.
LEF (Long Edge Feeding)SEF (Short Edge Feeding)
The Title block can be located in four different corners of the print, as
shown in the illustration below.
The Title block position number is always relative to the feeding
direction, which is indicated by the gray arrow.
These two symbols will be used throughout this manual to indicate
where the Title block position is, and where it is necessary to locate the
Title block to obtain the correct folding operation. This will help you to
understand the operation of the Folder.
The symbol (A) will be used when prints require fan folding and the
symbol (B) when prints require cross folding.

Operating Hints
Before printing, be sure that:
− The media rolls are positioned correctly in the center of the IOT.
− The lead edges on the paper rolls are straight. If necessary, trim the
edge.
− The doors are not opened, and that the folding program on the folder
is not changed during folding.

Folding Hints
Sizes
The 88XX Series Folder processes nearly all sizes with all folding
styles. However, some folding styles require, for a better result, a
particular size. Other folding styles only work with a particular kind of
style, as described below.
−Afnor and French Styles can be used with documents ISO, Afnor,
and French.
To obtain a perfect Afnor folded print, use only Afnor sizes with
perfect dimensions (±2mm).
− Ericsson style can be used with ISO and Ericsson sizes.
To obtain a perfect Ericsson folded print, use only Ericsson sizes.
− Wallet 11” style can be used with Ansi and Architectural size.
To obtain a perfect Wallet 11” folded print, use only Ansi sizes
with perfect dimensions (±2mm).
− Wallet 12” styles can be used with Ansi and Architectural sizes.
To obtain a perfect Wallet 12” folded print, use only Architectural
sizes with perfect dimensions (±2mm).
−All the other styles could be used with all kind of sizes except the
Ericsson and French sizes.
Face delivery
When a job is created, it could be sent to the folder with delivery Face
up or Face Down. All the documents, with all the folding programs, can
be processed by the folder so that they exit Face Up or Down.
Exceptions are the Ericsson and 198 folding programs.
− In order to create a correct job Face Up, exclude the style Ericsson
and the Landscape styles because they produce folded prints always
Face Down.
− In order to create a correct job Face Down, exclude the style 198
because it produces folded prints always Face Up.
Refer to the section “Folding Using Host Or Scanner” for a complete
description of job management.
