5-2. Rough paper, recycled paper
Some recycled paper may be thin, imsy and easy to curl when copied, and therefore inappropriate for
folding. When folding such paper, pay attention to the following points.
• Separate paper well prior to stacking on the paper feed tray.
• Set the processing speed as low as possible.
If set to high, wrinkles or deformed folding will result.
• Set the paper feed pressure as low as possible.
If set to high, double-feed will result.
• Set the paper separating pressure as low as possible.
If set to high, the center of the lead edge of the paper may be scratched or turned over.
5-3. B7, A7, A6 size paper
B7, A7, A6 size paper (fed by short edge feeding) can be folded in the following conditions.
However, B7, A7, or A6 paper is regarded as non-standard paper, and the paper length should be registered,
referring to “2. Standard Folding of Non-Standard Paper” (p.3-7).
• Folding mode
(When the [Folding Mode] key is pressed, the display lamp of the folding mode which cannot be selected
will not light up).
B7 : Single fold, Gate fold
A7 : Single fold
A6 : Single fold, Letter fold, Accordion-fold, Gate fold
• Thickness
64 to 81.4 g/m
2
/16 to 22 lb
• Stacking height
35 mm/1.37 inches or less
• Feeding pressure
[0] or [-1]
• Separating pressure
[0]
• Process Speed
[1] to [4]
If small and light paper is used, too fast processing speed will result in stream-feed (continuous
feed). Decrease the processing speed as slow as possible.
When mis-feed or double-feed occurs even though the feeding pressure and separating pressure are
set to the set value, adjust the feeding pressure and separating pressure.
