HEALTH, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT Precautions and safety issues Thoroughly read this operator manual, before using this machine. According to the European Guideline for machine safety (EC98-37), this operator manual must be available in the national language(s) of the country where the machine is delivered. -
Page 4: Country Specific Conditions
Country specific conditions Denmark In Denmark, certain types of Class 1 appliances may be provided with a plug that does not provide an adequate earth connection when inserted into a Danish socket outlet. Make sure the machine has a good functioning connection that has protective earthing. (the Plug and socket outlet must match). -
Page 5: End Of Life
End of life The objectives of the European Community's environment policy are, in particular, to preserve, protect and improve the quality of the environment, protect human health and utilise natural resources prudently and rationally. That policy is based on the precautionary principle and principles that preventive action should be taken, that environmental damage should as a priority be rectified at source. -

Page 53: Terminology
DFC sensors exist on Feeders (double sheet detection). Currently DFCs on Neopost inserting systems perform relative measurements, which means that they need a cycle to 'learn' the thickness of a sheet. - Page 54 Term Description Double Parallel The double parallel fold is a type of fold where the document is first fold folded halfway and the resulting folded set is again folded halfway. This fold is illustrated in the picture below. The position of both folds is adjustable.

Questions and answers
Why are the rollers on the paper feeder not turning....paper not catching and going through at all...envelopes do but not the paper!
The rollers on the Neopost M3000 paper feeder may not be turning due to several possible reasons:
1. Paper Loading Issue: Ensure that the bottom envelope is correctly positioned between the rollers, with the flap down and trailing, and that the stack is properly aligned and loosened.
2. Envelope Support Misalignment: Check that envelope support B is adjusted correctly to lift the flap side approximately 20 mm (0.8”) and evenly distribute the weight of the envelopes.
3. Sealing Function Not Enabled: If envelope sealing is enabled, ensure the sealing liquid reservoir is filled to the "Max" level and wait about 5 minutes for the brushes to moisten before starting.
4. Double Feed Control (DFC) Sensor Issue: The DFC sensor might need a cycle to learn the sheet thickness. If the system is not detecting sheets correctly, it may not feed them.
5. Environmental Conditions: Ensure the materials have been stored at 20°C (68°F) with 50% relative humidity and acclimated near the machine for at least 24 hours to prevent feeding issues.
6. Material Condition: Worn or incompatible paper (such as self-copying paper) may cause the rubber rollers to wear out faster, reducing their grip.
Check these factors and make necessary adjustments to resolve the issue.
