The printer will run at varying speeds, based on media settings. It is not necessary to try to “coordinate” or match
the feeder speed with the printer speeds. The feeder operates in what is known as “Presentation Mode”, that is,
the feeder presents an envelope to the printer and the printer pulls the envelope away. The feeder “presents”
another envelope and the process is repeated. So long as the feeder is running fast enough to have an envelope
in position for each cycle of the printer, the process will continue.
On the HD-CXENVL-FDR, speed settings below 50% are not fast enough for printing, but the slower settings are
good for testing and diagnostics.
When you are ready to run with the printer, ensure your speed is set on at
least 70% of maximum.
If your feeder is not running fast enough to stay ahead of the printer, it will result in the printer’s manual feed tray
pickup roller trying to pull an envelope in before the feeder has advanced it into position. This will result in the
printer stopping and displaying a “Paper Jam” condition. This is not actually a jam, but the printer will need to be
reset before continuing. After turning the speed of the feeder up somewhat, simply open and close the door on
the top left side of the printer to continue.
RUNNING A JOB WITH THE FEEDER AND PRINTER
After you have successfully set up and tested the feeder and performed the steps outlined earlier for preparing
the printer, you can now feed and print your envelopes. Prepare the printer for the feeder as shown in the
beginning of this manual!
1. With power to the feeder off, remove the lead envelope from the exit end of the delivery table.
2. Position the feeder in front of the printer’s manual feed tray
Open and close this
door to reset the
printer.
