Running a Job
Setting up the Feeder
The following steps will assist you in setting the feeder portion of the AstroJet 1000:
1. Release the separator-locking lever located
on the operator’s side of the feeder and
raise the separators to the up and locked
position. Place one piece of media on the
feeder table. Move the side guides out to
their extreme open position.
2. There are four separators on the feeder.
Use the two center separators for narrow
media and all four separators for wide
media. Place the media under the
separators and lower the separators so that
they rest on the media.
NOTE: Two types of separator tips are
included with the AstroJet 1000. The set that is installed on the unit was designed
for all types of media except single sheets of paper. These hard tips last the longest
and carry a part number of 90-103-09. The set packed with the machine is softer and
is intended to be used when running single sheets of paper or cards. They carry the
part number 90-103-09S.
3. Move the separator-locking lever up to lock the separators in place.
4. Adjust the side guides to the width of the
media and adjust the back guide so that the
media is raised approximately 1/2-inch and
rests on the curve of the back guide. When
running 10 inch or longer or heavy media
you may have to set the back guide so that
it just touches the back of the media.
5. Turn the AstroJet 1000 on and then turn the
medial thickness knob to set the initial print
head height according to the chart on the
right:
