Setting The Proper Feed Gap - Bryce 5K-LE Owner's Manual

To start a print job the feed gap should be set for each type of
media used in the printer. The feed gap is the spacing between
the feed rollers and the separators. Set the feed gap with a
piece media by following these procedures:
1. Loosen the H Block Knob on the three H-Block
Assemblies.
2. Raise the three H-Block Assemblies up. Tighten the H
Block Knobs to secure H-Block Assemblies in place.
3. Take a piece of the media and place between the Feed
Rollers and the H-Block Assemblies.
4. Square the edge of the media against the wall of the
Rear Support Plate Assembly.
5. Loosen the H Block Knobs and allow the H-Block
Assemblies to drop on top of the media. Keep the H-
Block Assembles up that won't contact the media.
When just one of the separator fingers is in contact
with the media use another piece beneath the other
separator finger and the Feed Roller to set the feed
gap.
6. Tighten H Block Knobs to secure H-Block Assemblies
in this position.
When the feed gap is not set correctly the printer will have
feeding problems. When the gap is too wide double feeding
(feeding two or more pieces at a time) will occur. If the gap is
to small the media will jam beneath the separators. If you
