1.6.2 FOLD VERTICAL SKEW ADJUSTMENT
Important
• The fold unit is adjusted for optimum performance before the finisher is shipped
from the factory. Do this adjustment only if the edges of folded booklets are not
even.
1. Switch the copier on.
2. Do a folding test.
• Switch the copier on.
• Put one page of A3 or DLT paper in the ARDF.
• On the copier operation panel, select booklet stapling.
• Press [Start]. One sheet is folded.
3. Hold the folded sheet with the creased
side pointing down, and face-up (the
same way that it came out of the
finisher).
4. Referring to the diagram, determine if
the skew is positive [A] or negative [B].
5. Measure the amount of skew.
6. Enter the SP mode
• Europe, Asia: Use SP 6201 001 (this is for A3 paper).
• North America: Use SP 6201 006 (this is for DLT paper).
7. Enter one-half the measured amount of skew.
Example: If the measure amount of skew is -1.2 mm, enter -0.6 mm
[D]: The range for measurement is –3.0 mm to +3.0 mm in 0.2 mm steps for
every notch adjustment.
8. Exit the SP mode and do the test again (steps 2 to 5).
9. Repeat this procedure until the skew is corrected.
The illustration below shows the effects of +/- adjustment with SP6201. (The
vertical arrows show the direction of paper feed.)
