Optra S

Pick Roller Technology
The Optra S family of printers uses a different type of pick roller than earlier Optra models. Earlier
models used a corner buckler system to separate the sheets of media; the current Optra S uses an
auto compensator. Media no longer has to be placed under a corner buckler.
The Optra S trays have two rollers that touch the media in two places (see “Figure 11” on page 103).
Avoid placing deep perforations in these areas since the media may nest, causing multiple sheet
feeds. Perforations that could cause nesting and tenting should fall outside the 0.31 - 0.79 in. area on
the leading edge of the media. (This is different from the 0.50 in. we recommend leaving at the top of
the form for printers with a corner buckler system.) You may want to use micro-perfs to avoid nesting
problems. See “Perforations and Die-Cuts” on page 9 for more information.
