Paper Stacking
The
printer can stack at least half a box of standard computer paper when the paper is properly
loaded.
After loading the paper, perform the following steps.
1.
Open the rear cabinet door to access the paper stacking area.
NOTE: Step 2 pertains to installation of the front paper stacking fence. (The rear fence
on the rear cabinet door is installed at the factory.) If the front fence has already been
installed,
continue with the paper stacking instructions at step 3.
2. Install
the front paper fence in the bracket as close as possible to the paper in the stacking
area
with the paper close to the rear door (Figure 2-4). The bracket is located in the up
Ć
per portion of the printer paper stacking area near the outer edges. The fence must be
installed
in the same bracket position on each side to maintain a vertical orientation.
3. Install the paper stacking tent into the paper stacking area with the far edge of the tent
against
the front paper fence (Figure 2-5).
4. Center the outer edges of the tent with the outer edges of the paper supply as seen
through
the printer cabinet.
5. A
dvance the paper until a few sheets begin to stack on the tent (Figure 2-6).
6. V
erify the following and make any necessary adjustments.
a.
The paper stack is centered on the tent
.
b.
The paper perforation folds are folding naturally.
c. The paper is following a straight path down to the tent in alignment with the outer
edges.
d. The
paper is against the front paper fence as it rests centered on the tent.
7. R
un the printer and stack approximately 15 to 20 sheets of paper.
8. Repeat step 6. Any adjustments to the paper stack can be made while the printer is runĆ
ning. If an adjustment is made, again check the stack after approximately 15 to 20 sheets
have
been processed.
NOTE: If the paper is not stacking properly, check the following items in addition to
those
listed in step 6.
NOTE 1: If printing occurs across the paper perforations, the paper may not stack corĆ
rectly. Adjust the Skip-Over Perforation configuration parameter to eliminate printing
across the paper perforations.
NOTE 2: If the paper path is too close to either side panel, paper stacking can be disĆ
rupted.
Adjust the paper path toward the
center of the printer
, away from the side panels.
NOTE
3: The front paper fence may be incorrectly positioned. R
eposition the front paper
fence into one of the other bracket locations.
