Paper jam or feeder out condition:
If the envelope feeder runs out of envelopes, jams, or is delayed in getting envelopes to the printer in time, the
printer will recognize this as a “PAPER JAM” and will indicate this on the display. Since this circumstance may not
actually be a paper jam, (i.e., feeder runs out), the printer can easily be reset with minimal effort. The following
steps should be taken to reset the printer:
1. If the feeder was simply late in delivering the envelopes to the printer, but envelopes are still in position on the
delivery table, simply open the top left door on the exit end of the printer and then close the door to reset the
printer.
2. If the feeder runs out of envelopes, the 4 second timer will elapse and stop the feeder. Move the “feeder
ready” lever to the right or “not ready” position. Load more envelopes into the feeder and press the RESET
button to start the motor and advance the first envelope down the delivery table to the stop sensor. Then move
the “feeder ready” lever back to the left (forward) to indicate to the printer that the feeder is ready. You will then
need to open and close the top left door on the printer’s exit end to reset the printer.
3. If the feeder jams, turn power to the feeder off, and then clear the envelope jam. Moving the feeder away
from the printer may be necessary to do this. After clearing the jam, reload the feeder, and advance envelopes
down the delivery table to the stop sensor. Then open and close the top left door on the printer’s exit side to
reset the printer.
REMEMBER: IF THE “FEEDER READY” LEVER IS NOT IN THE FORWARD POSITION, THE PRINTER WILL NOT RUN
YOUR ENVELOPES.
To help insure proper feeder performance; the belts and sensors should be cleaned routinely.
See the section titled “Operator Maintenance” for details.
