Page 9: What You Can Do With This Machine
The System Overview shows the Loader, Feeder and User Interface as it is designed for the DI880 System. The F65A/B is capable of loading about 200 sheets of 80g paper. The High Capacity Loader expands the capacity with up to 4000 sheets. They are easy to handle and allow the User to load paper at any time without interruption of the production flow. -
