Preparing for the Print Run
If the media in the initial feeder test is
•
separating cleanly (small gaps between the media in the discharge
area)
•
not double feeding or jamming
•
minimally or not skewed
•
not pinched at any point from the hopper to the printer
it’s time to get the feeder ready for the print job, and to check print
quality by printing through the print driver.
Once the media is shingled and sitting in the hopper, additional media can
be slowly added to the stack as the job progresses.

b … start with one pack of media (ex. 1 box of
envelopes, 250 sheets of heavy stock, 1 ream of bond paper) and add
media as the job progresses. Large stacks of oversized or heavy sheets
be limited to 2-3 packs of sheets to keep the media underneath from
becoming too tightly compressed.
- The feeder and conveyor should be powered on, and READY/SUSPEND
should be set to the ‘O’ position (SUSPEND).
- After the first few pieces are jogged (using the JOG button) and initial
test/set-up is complete, toggle the READY/SUSPEND switch to the
‘-‘ position (READY).
- Press the RESET button once, to advance the media to the printer
input rollers
