PAPER ADJUSTMENTS
The 34M has many adjustments which aid in the processing of different paper stocks.
These should be set for the paper you are using.
Paper Thickness
Start with the setting here for standard thickness paper. Copy paper is usually 20# bond
or 50# text. If the machine does not feed properly, try adjusting the feed either way.
Thicker paper may require increasing this setting.
Paper Feeding Separation
This dial is located under the cover on the top that hides the feed wheels. This setting
adjusts the paper feed plate under the middle feed wheel. Increasing the setting
moves the plate UP towards the wheel making the gap smaller for thinner paper. Put
the initial setting around the 2 mark. If it is not feeding correctly, you may have to
adjust this up for thinner paper, down for thicker.
Skew Adjustment
If the paper is not straight side to side, it can be straightened by turning the Skew
Adjustment knob. It is located on the right side of the paper Feed Tray. Turning the
knob left moves the bottom left; turning right moves the bottom right. Make an
adjustment and then run a sample. Continue until it is corrected.
