Cleaning the sensors
Over time, paper dust may deposit on the sensors of the mailing system and cause
problems with the letter detection. In order to ensure faultless operation at all times,
we recommend cleaning the sensors once monthly. A special cleaning set is availa-
ble from Francotyp-Postalia.
