Stacker Operational Best Practices
Stacker Limitations
• It is recommended to start with loose placement of Sheet Guide/Long Sheet Guide to
allow for proper stacking. Once proper stacking is achieved, adjust the Sheet Guide/
Long Sheet Guide inwards to improve stack quality.
• For printers with slower line speeds, higher fan speed is suggested if setting manually.
• Sheets with excessive upwards curl may end up ‘climbing’ up on the Long sheet End
Stop/ Long Sheet Guide, resulting in a very messy stack. The Stacker has no way of
detecting this type of jam. Please make sure sheets are corrected for curl by referring
to the Press Operators Manual for curl corrections. If the paper is still curled after
engine adjustments and results in poor stacking/frequent jams, adjusting fan speed
may help improve stacking.
• Sheets with excessive downwards curl may result in sheets rolling over each other
instead of stacking. The Stacker has no way of detecting this type of jam. Please make
sure sheets are corrected for curl by referring to the Press Operators Manual for curl
corrections. If the paper is still curled after engine adjustments and results in poor
stacking/frequent jams, adjusting fan speed may help improve stacking.
• Excessive downward curl may cause sheets to ‘curl over’ themselves. Reduce curl as
much as possible to prevent this from happening.
• Prior to undocking the Stacker, move the Stacker Table to a convenient position to
transfer the stacked prints.
• Always locate the Stacker on a level floor.
The Stacker is capable of stacking paper from 210mm (8.27’’) x 210mm (8.27’’) up to
330mm (13’’) x 1200mm (47.2’’). The stack quality depends on paper quality, paper weight,
operator setup, printer speed and environmental conditions. If the Paper Guides on the
Stacker are set too tightly, jams will occur frequently. If they are set too loosely, the stack
quality will be poor. It is up to the operator to set up the machine such that the stack quality
is high and the stacker is running smoothly, without jamming.
Some papers may not be stackable even if the Stacker is set up properly. A list of machine
limitations is found below.
• Index paper must be fed with the tab on the trailing edge of the sheet.
•
Metallic or other high static medias can be difficult to stack, these may require operator
intervention. When stacking film, we recommend printing a slip sheet in between each
film sheet to help reduce static in the stack.
