  • Page 9 Introduction • 1 ● When working on a live circuit, use extreme caution. Don’t grasp two sides of a live circuit at the same time. ● Always use the right tools for the job. ● Treat every circuit like a gun which may be loaded. It may not be “live”, but be sure. Check with a neon tester, a voltmeter, or simply unplug the machine.

    1 • Introduction eQUIPMeNT sAFeTY Just by walking around, you yourself may carry a threat to the equipment, in the form of a high voltage electrostatic charge. Your body acts as a giant capacitor which can store large amounts of electricity. Walking across a rug can charge you with several thousand volts, which can discharge in a spark up to an inch long.

    OMR• 6 OMR MARK GROUPING Each OMR code begins with two fixed marks at the end nearest to the sensor (Benchmark and Safety mark). These are followed by one, two, or three groups of marks where each group comprises three data marks followed by a fixed mark. Each data mark is present or absent as required to reflect the desired function.
  • Page 74: Basic Omr

    6 • OMR BAsIc OMR Basic OMR enables you to collate multi-page documents that vary between one and five sheets (10 sheets with Single fold and certain paper weights). It allows you to vary the number of pages per envelope in a run from envelope to another through the use of OMR marks based on the document information in the customer’s database.
  • Page 75: Retime Marks

    OMR• 6 ReTIMe MARKs Retime Marks are necessary for reliable reading of the code, due to the paper speed varying as it feeds. With Basic OMR only the first Retiming mark is needed, if one or both of the other groups are used the Retime Mark associated with that group(s) must also be printed.
  • Page 76: Enhanced Omr

    6 • OMR 6.11 eNHANceD OMR Enhanced OMR allows you to stop feeding sheets at selected points in a run and/or to select whether the other feeders are used—separately for each envelope. It also provides a higher level of mailpiece integrity so that sensitive documents are not sent to the wrong customer. 6.12 AUTO-BATcH Enhanced OMR adds an Auto-Batch mode to supplement the normal OMR batch mode.
  • Page 77: Mark Code Interpretation

    For example, the inserter would stop if the printer had picked up two sheets when printing a page, or if the pages have been disturbed and are out of order, or if the 3 Series picks up two sheets while its double-detect feature is not in use.
