FEEDER TRAYS

Loading feeder trays

It is important to load paper properly in the feeder trays to prevent jams and loss of production time. The following guidelines will help ensure maximum efficiency of your IPS printer’s operation.

Guidelines for loading paper

When you are loading the paper, follow these guidelines to prevent paper jams:

Remove damaged sheets.

Load the paper with the package wrapper seam side up.

Make sure that the direction of the curl is consistent.

Avoid fanning the paper unless the stock is predrilled.

Do not load the paper above the MAX line on the length guide.

Place any paper left in the bottom of the tray on top of the new paper stack.

For trays 3, 4, 5 and 6, load paper with curl side up. If you do not detect paper curl, load paper with the wrapper seam side down.

Additional guidelines for loading special stocks:

When loading predrilled paper, fan the paper and remove loose paper plugs.

Load transparencies into trays 1 and 2 only.

When loading tab stock, remove deformed, bent, or damaged stock.

Load preprinted paper in trays 3, 4, 5, and 6 only, in order not to smudge the print. These trays are vacuum-type feeders, unlike trays 1 and 2, which are friction-type.
