Aligning the paper passage lines
After preparing this machine for binding operations, check
that the paper passage line is aligned to that of the
upstream unit.
When paper conveyed from the upstream unit is conveyed
to this machine, check that there is even space between
the left and right side joggers and paper.
If not even, adjust the position of this machine to avoid
paper jams.
Move this machine at other fine adjustment screens of the
fine adjustment menu, until the space becomes even.
(
Refer to page 60.)
When paper is more than 140 mm/5.51 inch wide, the
standard stitching width is determined by the ratio of 1:2:1.
Stitching width is the center to center distance between
the two stitches. However, if the stitching position lies
inside the stitch prohibited area, it will be set at a position
avoiding this area.
For example, if the paper width is 240 mm/9.45 inch,
stitching is carried out at the 60 mm/2.36 inch and 180 mm
/7.09 inch positions from the paper edge.
When less than 140 mm/5.51 inch, the stitching width is
70 mm/2.76 inch (minimum stitching width).
The stitching width (the ratio) can be changed. (
