Use only the power supply voltage specified on the main nameplate. Using other voltages could result in a fire or an electrical shock. Keep this unit and the power cord away from heaters and heater vents. Excessive heat could melt the cover or power cord covering, and result in a fire or an electrical shock. Do not use solvent inside or near the unit (e.g. when cleaning the unit). Such solvents may damage the rubber rollers and resin inside the unit, resulting in malfunctions. Make sure that the combined power consumption of the appliances to be connected does not exceed the capacity rating of the power outlets or plug receptacles. Exceeding the capacity rating could cause the power outlets, plug receptacles, or power extension cords to overheat and catch a fire. Remove any dust that accumulates on the power plug prongs and the surface of the plug from which the prongs extend. Accumulated dust could result in a fire. If any foreign object such as metal or liquid should enter this unit, immediately turn the unit off at the power switch and disconnect the power plug from the power outlet. Failure to do so could ...

Do not put fingers inside during operation. This could result in injury. Always disconnect the power plug from the power outlet when the unit is not to be used for an extended period. Failure to do so could result in a fire due to leakage current if the insulation should deteriorate. Install this unit on a level, stable stand or floor, with sufficient space around it. Failure to do so could result in the unit overturning and causing injury. Do not install this unit in a location where there is excessive humidity or where contact with water is possible. Poor choice of location could result in deterioration of the insulation, a fire or an electrical shock. Disconnect the power plug from the power outlet before attempting to move this unit. Failure to do so could result in power cord damage, a fire or an electrical shock. MyBinding.com 5500 NE Moore Court Hillsboro, OR 97124 Toll Free: 1-800-944-4573 Local: 503-640-5920...

Precautions in Maintenance and Handling Repairs should be performed by qualified service personnel. WARNING: 2.1 To avoid the risk of electrical shock, disconnect the machine from the A.C. power source before performing any service procedure. The hardware used is METRIC. Replace hardware only with the same size as was originally used. Observe caution when cutting cable “tie‐wraps” so as not to damage the electrical wires. Note the routing of wiring harnesses, cables and the position of parts and assemblies before disassembly. They must be reassembled in the original configuration to avoid damage from moving components during operation. When using a tool generating heat such as soldering iron, take care not to damage the harnesses and cables.

11. Sensor Voltage Measurement Sensors play an important role in monitoring and tracking the flow of the media inside of machine. A majority of stall conditions could be sensor related. Therefore, a digital multi‐meter (DMM) is used for measuring the voltage reading of the sensors, and assuring proper alignment. 5.1 Set DMM to 20 at the DVC section. 5.2 Using the two probes of the DMM to get voltage, one probe placed at the chassis ground of the system, while the other one probe pin 1 of the sensor connector on the interface board. 5.3 Covering the sensor, the reading of DMM should be less than 0.2V. 5.4 Uncovering the sensor, the reading of DMM should be more than 4.5V. 5.5 Mark Reading Sensors 。Seeing paper 0.2V 。Seeing mark 1.8V The range of sensor’s voltage reading is greater than 4.5V or less than 0.2V has the best state for the sensor to monitoring the media movement. The sensor connector on the sensor board has three pins. The first pin is for signal of sensor voltage reading measurement. The second pin is for VCC (5V). The third pin is for ground. Some sensors connector is 4‐pin, the 3 pin is empty; the 4 pin will be common ground. MyBinding.com 5500 NE Moore Court Hillsboro, OR 97124 Toll Free: 1-800-944-4573 Local: 503-640-5920...

15. Calibrations To calibrate cutting mark, cutting length, offset and top margin: Select Job #4 Holding for 5 seconds. mark:50 length:50 offset:50 margin:50 is displayed. Tip on to select the item you are going to calibrate. Tip on to save when the calibration is done. 15.1 Length On Job #4, set it to without cutting mark mode, feed a piece of paper to cut the top margin, make sure the cut top margin is 12.7mm, if not calibrate the top margin first then do Length calibration. Select length:50. Feed a Letter Size sheet thru, the sheet will be cut into half which is 5.5”, compare the 2 X 5.5”, if the 1 half cut is shorter than the 2 half, tip on to adjust until the 1 half and 2 half are exactly the same; If the first cut is greater than the 2 half, tip on to decrease the setting until the 2 half is equal. Each press on or represents 0.1mm increment or decrement 15.1 Cutting Mark On job #4 to hold then tip on to set cutting mark, cut a printed sheet with mark, make sure the leading edge of the mark to cutting line is 3mm Select mark:50, if the cut mark leading edge to cutting line is greater or smaller than 3mm, tip on ...

15.3 Offset This is allowing calibrate the 5 business card in a sheet which is possibly longer than the spec. Assume the 5 card length is longer than the specification by 0.1mm. Under calibration mode select offset:50 to reduce the figure 50 to 49. 15.4 Top Margin On job #4 without mark to cut the top margin, it should be 12.7mm. If the cut top margin sample is greater or smaller than 12.7mm, select margin:50, tip on and to adjust until the top margin is within the spec. Each press represents 0.1mm increment or decrement.
