Overview of [Paper Setting]

[Paper Type]

The following seven paper types are provided according to the plainness of paper.

For details about Paper Type, refer to Paper Type Descriptions.

[Plain], [Fine], [Color Specific], [Coated-GL], [Coated-ML], [Coated-GO], [Coated-MO]

[Profile Name]

No entry can be made in setting the paper conditions for the tray to be used. Enter the paper profile name when you register the paper conditions specified for a tray.

Up to 50 one-byte characters (25 two-byte characters) can be entered for the name.

[Paper Size]

Selecting [Standard] automatically detects the standard size of paper loaded in the selected tray.

Selecting [Custom] allows you to enter the desired dimensions from the screen. This setting can also be made by recalling a custom size previously registered.

To specify [Tab Paper], select either A4 or 8.5 11 and specify the number of tabs.

Detectable standard sizes vary depending on the paper tray.

Perfect Binder PB-503 PB tray: 81 g/m² to 216 g/m² / 22 lb Bond to 57 lb Bond

When the machine is mounted with Perfect Binder PB-503, the paper weight information for the upper/lower tray of post inserter mounted on Folding Unit FD-503 should be set within the range of 81 g/m² to 216 g/m² or 22 lb Bond to 57 lb Bond in order to comply with the specifications for perfect binding covers. When the machine is not mounted with Perfect Binder PB-503, the paper weight is not set in the paper setting. But the paper of 50 g/m² to 300 g/m² / 13 lb Bond to 81 lb Bond can be loaded.

The paper weight information for the upper/lower tray of Post Inserter PI-502 is not set in the paper setting. But the paper of 50 g/m² to 200 g/m² / 13 lb Bond to 53 lb Bond can be loaded.

[Colored Paper]

Specify the color of paper. This setting easily gives the color information of paper loaded in the tray.

[White], [Blue], [Goldenrod], [Gray], [Green], [Ivory], [Orange], [Pink], [Red], [Yellow], [Cream], [Others], [User Color]

Specify whether or not the paper is punched. The paper specified as punched cannot be punched even if [Punch] is selected in [Output Setting].

[Pre-Punched], [No Hole-Punch]

[Both Sides Adj.]

Adjusts [Zoom] ratios ([Vertical], [Horizontal]) and [Image Shift] amounts ([Up/Down], [Right/Left]) for both [Front] and [Back] pages in order to align the images printed on front and back pages in 2-sided printing. Also, [Gap] or [Chart Adjustment] can be used for adjustment.

It is advisable to perform Both Sides Adjust for every paper to be used, as the shrinkage ratio differs according to the paper type, paper brand, or difference in temperature of storage location.

It is possible to disable the horizontal zoom setting for the back page in [Common Setting] of the administrator setting.

This option also allows you to adjust the registration loop before using the Both Sides Adjust function.

[Image Shift][Right/Left]:

Front/Back -3.0 mm to +3.0 mm (1 step = 0.1 mm)

[Registration Loop]:

Front/Back -9.9 mm to +9.9 mm (1 step = 0.1 mm)

[Curl Adjustment]

The machine mounted with Relay Unit RU-509 provides [Curl Adjustment] displayed on the screen, which allows you to correct the curl of printed paper (arc-like deformation).

Also, switching [ON] and [OFF] for Humidifier Setting is available if the relay unit is equipped with Humidifier HM-102.
