For all other types of postprocessing devices and for all preprocessing devices, you have to make enabled status changes in only the Con®gure Pre/Post procedure.
Using the Printer Stacker
If a postprocessing device is disabled or not yet con®gured, you may continue to use boxed forms and the printer stacker. If the postprocessing device includes any rollers, sensors, or any other hardware that would interfere with the operation of the stacker, you must remove those interferences before you attempt to use the stacker.
If the ªStacker Enabledº con®guration item under the Con®gure Printer procedure is set to Yes and there are no postprocessing devices installed and enabled on the printer, the stacker table automatically rises when printing begins. To raise the stacker table manually, press the stacker table UP key on the stacker control panel.
If a postprocessing device is installed on a printer and is enabled, the stacker table is lowered and is prevented from moving upward. The pendulum and other devices in the stacker are also prevented from operating.
In duplex mode, the stacker in Printer 1 is always disabled as if a postprocessing device were installed and enabled.
Error and Jam Recovery
If the ªJam Recovery Typeº con®guration item setting under Con®gure Printer allows it, printed pages before the top of the stacker are automatically reprinted following the clearing of a forms jam. This applies only to jams that occur within the printer. If a jam occurs anywhere past the printer stacker (that is, in the postprocessing device), you can extend the number of pages automatically reprinted by setting the ªJam Recovery Pointº con®guration item under the Con®gure Printer procedure. See ªRecovering from a Forms Jam (Simplex Operations)º on page 121 and ªRecovering from a Forms Jam (Duplex Operations)º on page 127 for details of recovery from postprocessing device forms jams. Following a forms jam, if a postprocessing device is particularly difficult to thread, you should look for ways of splicing forms together between the printer and the postprocessing device. For jam recovery in a postprocessing device, see ªRecovering from a Forms Jam in the Postprocessing Deviceº on page 135.
Adding Supplies
The printers normally display ªOut of Suppliesº messages when an internal usage counter reaches a ®xed threshold. You can defer taking action on most ªOut of Suppliesº messages for some amount of additional usage. During that additional usage time, the ªOut of Suppliesº message reappears each time an error condition is detected or an
