The basics of operation 17
3.5.2 Separation function
In most cases, you can use the default setting . In case of letters with ‘critical’
demands for separation, you can adjust the feeder easily.
In the following cases, an adjustment is recommended:
– very thick letters
– very heavy letters
– thin, unstable letters
– letters with sensitive surfaces.
These ‘critical’ letters constitute only a small fraction of the whole amount of letters
processed.
Not processable:
– very soft and unstable letters
– rigid letters (books, catalogues etc.).
