4.
Adjust the position of the flat fold lower roller [A] to adjust the difference in alignment between the
upper and lower rollers of the flat fold booklet unit.
•
By default, the upper and lower rollers of the flat fold booklet unit are not aligned vertically.
There is a 3 mm difference [D] between the upper and lower rollers. However, you can
change the lower roller position from [B] (factory default) to [C]. If you change the lower
roller position to [C], the difference becomes 0 mm. In this case, the upper and lower
rollers are aligned vertically.
•
If toner flakes off along the fold on the booklet as a result of excessive folding (folding was
too strong), change the lower roller position to [C]. In this position, the booklet will be
thicker than the factory default position.
•
To increase the folding strength, the lower roller position should be at [B] (factory default
position). Stronger folding will make the booklet thinner.
•
To reduce the folding strength, the lower roller position should be at [C] (the difference in
alignment is 0 mm). Weaker folding will make the booklet thicker.
