3.1 Square fold booklets
Description
The Spine Pro takes your normal booklets and makes them look more like perfect bound
(glue bound) books. The output lays flat for easy packing and you are also able to print on the
back (spine) of the book for easy retrieval in bookshelves. The Spine Pro runs up to 1800
sets / hour depending on which mode that is selected.
The Spine Pro is equipped with a stacker full sensor. In mode 1 and
2, stacker full signal appears 30 booklets after the stacker full sensor
has been blocked. In mode 3 and Bypass, stacker full signal
appears 20 booklets after the stacker full sensor has been blocked.
Whenever the books are removed the count starts from zero again. If
the stacker full function is not desired, disconnect the stacker full plug
from its receptacle.

Forming the spine square is not adviseable for booklets containing 5
sheets or less.
