NOTICE

  • If a numeric value is specified for Offset for All Size, it is applied to all paper sizes. With a specific paper size selected,the set value becomes the sum of the entered value and the value previously specified for Offset for All Size.

NOTICE

  • Make this adjustment after completing Half-Fold Position Adj..

NOTICE

  • Even once the crease position is adjusted, a misalignment may be caused between the folding position and crease position depending on the paper weight. In this case, retry this adjustment so that the folding position matches the crease position.

  1. Press Adjustment on the MACHINE screen to display the Adjustment Menu screen.

  2. Press Finisher Adjustment, Saddle Stitcher Adjustment, Crease Position Adjustment, and Half-Fold Crease Position in sequence.

  3. Select the size to be adjusted using down or up.

Tri-Fold Crease Position

Move the tri-fold crease position in Creaser Unit CR-101 mounted on Saddle Stitcher SD-513. For both the Fold 1 crease position and the Fold 2 crease position, adjust the distance from the paper edge to the crease position.

Objects of Adjustment: Offset for All Size, A4 short edge feed, 8.5 11 short edge feed

NOTICE

  • If a numeric value is specified for Offset for All Size, it is applied to all paper sizes. With a specific paper size selected,the set value becomes the sum of the entered value and the value previously specified for Offset for All Size.

  • Make this adjustment after completing Tri-Fold Position Adj..

  • Even once the crease position is adjusted, a misalignment may be caused between the folding position and crease position depending on the paper weight. In this case, retry this adjustment so that the folding position matches the crease position.

  • Any crease position causes the tri-fold position to be pulled to the crease position, and the fold position may be changed.
    In this case, make the Tri-Fold Position Adj. to determine the tri-fold position, then follow the steps below to adjust the crease position.
    1. Largely shift the crease position from the tri-fold position. Shift the crease position in the negative (-) direction or positive (+) direction so that each current position shifts at a maximum when outputting paper.
    2. Check the output paper, then measure the distance from the crease position on the output paper to the desired crease position.
    3. Enter the measurement distance above into the setting value of Crease Position Adjustment.
    For details on the setting procedure, refer to the following.

  1. Press Adjustment on the MACHINE screen to display the Adjustment Menu screen.

  2. Press Finisher Adjustment, Saddle Stitcher Adjustment, Crease Position Adjustment, and Tri-Fold Crease Position in sequence.
