6.4 PUNCHING OPERATIONS
After installing the correct die set in your StreamPunch, you are ready to begin punching. The
following sections indicate how to activate the machine. Read these sections completely and
become familiar with the various machine and Die Set components.
The POWER LED should be illuminated. If not, apply power with the Power On/Off (I/O) switch
located at the front of the StreamPunch module.
To activate the Automatic Punch Mode of the Stream Punch simply press the green button. The
PUNCH ENABLED LED will illuminate for MT-C3 & Venus.
PUNCH ENABLED: You may also activate the punch by using the Ricoh Printer interface screen
on printers so equipped for BC-3.
Once punch is enabled, the LED will remain illuminated and the punch will remain enabled for one
full minute after the run has ended. After that time, the system will default to the bypass mode and
the next run will not be punched.
CLOSE DOOR and PAPER JAM: If either of these LED’s are on, no bypass and no punch can
occur until these areas have been checked and corrected.
CHIP TRAY FULL/OUT and CHECK DIE SET: If either of these LED’s are on, you can run in
bypass mode but not punch mode.
CHIP TRAY FULL/OUT: If this LED is flashing the Chip Tray is FULL. If this LED is shinning solid,
the Chip Tray is OUT.
POWER: If this LED is not on, paper can not run through the GBC StreamPunch in either bypass or
punch mode. The paper will jam entering the GBC StreamPunch.
6.5 PAPER CHIP DRAWER
The paper chip drawer for your StreamPunch is located at the front of the machine’s base. The
drawer should be periodically pulled out and emptied. The StreamPunch incorporates
microprocessor technology to inform the operator when the Chip Tray needs to be emptied. When
the Punch has cycled a certain number of times, the Check Chip Tray LED will begin to flash on and
off. You may continue to use the StreamPunch for a short period longer if you wish, but it is not
recommended.
You must empty the Chip Tray with the Power On so that the sensors are able to identify this action.
This will ensure that the LED will reset itself.
