Setting up a print job means adjusting the printer to accommodate the width, height, thickness and weight of your material.

There are two things that determine how reliably your printer feeds: the setup adjustments and the quality of your material. A good setup minimizes misfeeds and jams. And your printer will perform at its best when you run material that falls within our published specifications. Please see Appendix B for complete material specifica- tions.

The figure on the next page calls out key machine compo- nents, each of which is briefly described in the text that follows. Refer to the figure on the next page for compo- nent location.

1. H-Block Separators

Adjust to the thickness of your material. The gap between the H-Block separator fingers and the feed rollers should be just enough to allow a single piece to feed through the printer.
