  • Page 14: Features And Function

    Features and function The HD-CXENVL-FDR envelope feeder is a top load, bottom feed machine designed to feed a wide variety of envelope types and sizes into a digital printer. The HD-CXENVL-FDR makes digital printers more productive by continually feeding envelopes, one at a time, from a stack in the feed hopper, and delivering each envelope to the printer’s manual feed tray pickup roller.

  • Page 15: Setting Up The Feeder

    SETTING UP THE FEEDER IT IS ADVISABLE TO MOVE THE FEEDER AWAY FROM THE PRINTER TO SET IT FOR YOUR ENVELOPES. Note: The feeder can be setup for your envelopes away from the printer, and then easily placed in line with the printer after setup is complete.
  • Page 16 Step 3: With power to the feeder OFF, rotate the paper guide adjustment knob to move the paper guides outward towards the side plates of the feeder. Move the guides outward enough to accommodate your envelopes Paper guide adjustment knob NOTE: The HD-CXENVL-FDR features self-centering paper guides.

  • Page 17: Setting The Sheet Separator(S)

    Step 7: (Optional) Tighten the paper guide locking knobs to secure the paper guides in position. (NOTE: These knobs must be loosened to move the paper guides) Setting the Sheet Separator(s) The HD-CXENVL-FDR utilizes a patented “Buckle Separation” technique for separating the bottom envelope from the stack.
  • Page 18 Step 1. Turn the separator height adjustment knob clockwise several turns to raise the separator Separator height adjustment knob Step 2. Place the lead edge of your envelope underneath the separator as shown below Step 3. Slowly turn the separator height adjustment knob counter-clockwise to lower the separator tip onto the envelope.

  • Page 19: Setting Up The Envelope Support Wedge (Back Wedge)

    Step 6. (optional) If you run envelopes that require more than one separator, install the second separator in one of the alternate positions on the bridge using the included attaching bolt. Set the second separator like the center one. NOTES The separators do not need a lot of fine tuning, as a small buckle is all that is required.
  • Page 20 Step 1. After setting the separator as shown in the previous steps, leave the one envelope in the feeder that you used for the separator setup Step 2. Carefully shingle out a small stack of envelopes so that the bottom one will be the foremost envelope in the stack as shown here.
  • Page 21 Step 4. With one hand, raise the back end of the envelope stack up. With the other hand, loosen the wedge locking knob and slide the wedge into position underneath the back end of the stack. Locking knob Proper position for standard envelopes As shown in the pictures above and below, the support wedge should be in just far enough to hold the back edge of the envelope stack up off the belts.

  • Page 22: Setting The Envelope Support Wedge For Other Envelope Types

    Setting the Envelope Support Wedge for Other Envelope Types The following examples illustrate suggested wedge positions for several different envelope sizes. When running standard envelopes, i.e., #10, 6 x 9, greeting card envelopes, the wedge should be positioned as shown in steps 4 and 5 above.

  • Page 23: Setting The Delivery Table Paper Guides

    Setting the delivery table paper guides The patented “floating” or tilting delivery table on the HD-CXENVL-FDR is designed to advance the envelopes that the feed belts deliver, one at a time, into the printer’s manual feed tray feed roller. The delivery table is equipped with self-centering paper guides, an envelope drive belt, and a stop photo sensor at the end, which is used to stop each envelope in position underneath the printer’s feed roller, for take-away by the printer.
  • Page 24 Step 3. Place one of your envelopes between the delivery table guides near the exit and move the guides inward with your free hand until they are alongside the envelope. (push guides near the bridge) NOTE: Do not push the guides tightly against the envelope as this will keep the envelopes from advancing down the delivery table! Set the guides close to the envelope but do not pinch it.

  • Page 25: Testing The Feeder

    Testing the feeder Step 1. Turn the speed control knob up a little bit and then press the JOG/RESET button to start the motor at slow speed. Watch the first envelope advance from the feed area towards the delivery table. Turn speed control up a little and then press and hold the RESET/JOG button to start...
  • Page 26 The feeder will now begin advancing envelopes UNLESS THE STOP AND START SENSORS ARE BOTH BLOCKED. The envelopes should advance from the feeder one at a time, and then travel down the delivery table. As they travel down the delivery table, they should be accelerated slightly, creating a small gap between the envelopes as shown here: Note: If the envelopes do not advance smoothly down the delivery table, or if they tend to “bunch up”...

  • Page 27: Setting The Speed Of The Feeder

    *If there is no gap at all, you may need to move your envelope support wedge in underneath the envelope stack a little farther, or lower the separator tip a bit to create a more pronounced buckle for better envelope separation. *If the envelopes do not feed consistently, or the gap between envelopes on the delivery table exceeds 3 or 4 inches, you may need to move the back wedge back a little to let the envelopes contact the feed belts more.

  • Page 28: Running A Job With The Feeder And Printer

    The printer will run at varying speeds, based on media settings. It is not necessary to try to “coordinate” or match the feeder speed with the printer speeds. The feeder operates in what is known as “Presentation Mode”, that is, the feeder presents an envelope to the printer and the printer pulls the envelope away.
  • Page 29 3. Carefully lift the delivery table up high enough to clear the lower edge of the manual tray opening and move the feeder in toward the printer. Ensure that the delivery table enters the manual feed tray opening without resistance. 4.
  • Page 30 Feeder should touch the printer here. The HD-CXENVL-FDR is equipped with a latching mechanism underneath the delivery table that secures the feeder to the printer for consistent envelope registration. These spring-loaded latches connect to the lower lip on the opening of the manual feed tray as you push the feeder in. You will hear a snapping sound as the latches engage the printer.
  • Page 31 10. Push the “FEEDER READY” lever on the operator side of the delivery table forward toward the printer. This will trigger the manual feed tray paper present sensor so the printer knows you have envelopes in place. FEEDER READY LEVER Push this lever forward to begin printing after advancing envelopes.
  • Page 32 Paper jam or feeder out condition: If the envelope feeder runs out of envelopes, jams, or is delayed in getting envelopes to the printer in time, the printer will recognize this as a “PAPER JAM” and will indicate this on the display. Since this circumstance may not actually be a paper jam, (i.e., feeder runs out), the printer can easily be reset with minimal effort.

  • Page 33: Detaching The Feeder From The Printer

    DETACHING THE FEEDER FROM THE PRINTER As described earlier in this manual, the HD-CXENVL-FDR features a spring-loaded latching system that secures the feeder to the printer during operation. When changing jobs, servicing the feeder, or in the event you want to use the manual feed tray without the envelope feeder, you may wish to detach the feeder from the printer.

  • Page 34: Important Operating Tips/Notes

    IMPORTANT OPERATING TIPS/NOTES The printer will only recognize that media is present if the “Feeder Ready Lever” has been pushed forward. Note on HD-CX printers: Setting up the HD-CXENVL-FDR properly, to achieve consistent envelope delivery to the printer, is imperative; as the printer does not feature a “retry”...

  • Page 35: Automatic "Feeder Ready Lever" Reset

    Automatic “Feeder Ready Lever” Reset When you lift the delivery table up to remove the feeder from the printer, or to move the feeder into position with the printer, the Feeder Ready Lever will automatically be moved to the right (not ready position). This gives the operator ample opportunity to advance envelopes properly into the printer before moving the Feeder Ready Lever forward, indicating a ready state to the printer.
