3. Profiles
Paper curl is caused by many variables, including:
•The manufacturer’s brand of paper and the manufacturing lot
•The weight of the paper and whether it is coated or uncoated
•The amount of dry ink/toner and the area being covered on a sheet: the heavier the coverage, the greater the tendency to curl
•The atmospheric conditions of the room where the paper is stored
•The atmospheric conditions of the room where the digital press is located
•The heat generated during the fusing processes
The digital press is equipped with an automatic curl control system that uses the variables listed above to determine the amount of pressure needed at the different decurlers in order to reduce the curl.
Decurler specifications
The Decurler has both top and bottom adjustment arms that apply pressure to the paper based on system defaults, selections made on the Tray Properties screen, or based on selections made on the Decurler Profile screen. The degree of pressure is applied independently to the top and bottom Decurler arms.
