The feeder will now begin advancing envelopes UNLESS THE STOP AND START SENSORS ARE BOTH BLOCKED.
The envelopes should advance from the feeder one at a time, and then travel down the delivery table. As they
travel down the delivery table, they should be accelerated slightly, creating a small gap between the envelopes as
shown here:
Note: If the envelopes do not advance smoothly down the delivery table, or if they tend to “bunch up” you may
need to open the delivery table guides up a little bit to allow free movement of the envelopes.
As your envelopes advance down the delivery table, the two envelope sensors will become blocked. When both
sensors are blocked by one or more envelopes, the motor will stop.
It is strongly recommended at this point to test the feeding and consistency of the envelope delivery before
moving the feeder into position with the printer.
Step 4.
Pull the first envelope away from the end of the delivery table so the machine will advance a second
envelope to the stop sensor.
Repeat this to test the consistency of the feeder. Adjust if necessary to obtain the best results.
While you are testing the feeder, make note of the gaps between the envelopes as they travel down the delivery
table. A small gap of ¼” to 1.5” is satisfactory although the gap can vary a bit. *
Pull the envelope straight
away from the exit end of
the delivery table.
