Loading Forms (Duplex Mode)
The ED1/ED2 duplex printing system is designed to have forms loaded through
Printer 1, the Buffer/Flipper Unit, and Printer 2 for duplex printing.
This section provides step-by-step instructions for threading forms in duplex
printing applications. “Loading Forms (Simplex or Dual Simplex Mode)” on
page 102 contains instructions for loading forms for an ES1 printer or ED1/ED2
printers in dual simplex mode. These instructions are for loading boxed,
continuous forms that are loaded at the forms input area of Printer 1, through the
Buffer/Flipper Unit, Urge Unit, and Printer 2, to the output stacker of Printer 2.
If preprocessing or postprocessing devices are used with the printing system, steps
involving the continuous forms source and the final destination are different from
the instructions given here. Because each preprocessing and postprocessing device
is unique, you should use the specific instructions for the initial loading from a
preprocessing device to Printer 1 or forms handling in a postprocessing device
following Printer 2 that accompany the preprocessing or postprocessing device.
Do this task when any of the following situations occur:
v You see the END OF FORMS 078A message
v You need to change forms
v You are prompted by a forms jam recovery procedure step.
To load forms, do the following:
1. Ensure that both Printer 1 and Printer 2 are in the Not Ready state before you
begin this task.
2. Ensure that the Urge Unit is not running.
