Toggles automatic feeder mode. In AUTO mode feeder settings
are calculated automatically depending on paper size and weight.
In most cases AUTO settings will provide optimum feeding perfor-
mance. Switching AUTO settings off allows the operator to make
adjustments to fans.
Allows the operator to switch ultrasonic double sheet detection
(DSD) off. For some media types such as thick card or laminated
media the ultrasonic sensor may give incorrect readings. In this
case switch the sensor off.
per wall. Increase this if the sheets exit the feeder in an inconsist-
ent orientation. Thinner sheets can be damaged (over-registered)
if this value is set too high.
Paper density is a value measured by the separated paper (SP)
sensor. A higher value means more sheets are floated and the
unfloated pile is closer to the vacuum belts.
The front separation fan (air knife) floats the top sheets in the pile.
Insufficient separation air can result in frequent misfeeds, while
excessive airflow can float too many sheets and result in double
feeds.
The side fan can be used to add additional air for media that is
difficult to separate with the front fan only. Excessive side float air
can cause issues with registration.
Vacuum fan controls the force with which the top sheet in the pile
is pulled in contact with the feed belts. Insufficient vacuum can
result in frequent misfeeds, while excessive vacuum can pick up
several sheets and result in double feeds.
This button allows the operator to start all feeder fans to check if
the sheets are separating properly.
