5.10 FOLD PLATes
1 AND 2 OFFseT
It may be necessary to set an offset
value for each Fold Plate in order to
make actual fold panel sizes agree
with the dimensions indicated on the
machine's display in setup.
For this procedure you will need to
refer to the machine's display which will
indicate default panel sizes for sheets
of 297mm or 279mm in length. (The
illustration is for a 297mm (A4) sheet
with a standard fold).
Before carrying out the settings below,
set the Fold 1 Offset and Fold 2 Offset
in Parameters menu to zero.
step 1 - Fold Plate 1 setting
1. Make a note of Fold 1 length as displayed in job setup e.g. 96mm.
2. Run a standard 80g/m
3. Measure Fold 1 in millimetres e.g. 98mm (2mm too long).
4. Take the actual fold dimension and subtract the displayed job setup figure e.g. +2mm
5. Enter this difference (positive or negative) into the Fold 1 Offset setting in the parameters menu,
then leave diagnostics.
6. Run another standard 80g/m
the actual fold length.
step 2 - Fold Plate 2 setting
DO NOT carry out this adjustment until Step 1 above is successfully completed.
1. Make a note of Fold 2 length as displayed in job setup e.g. 196mm.
2. Run a standard 80g/m
3. Measure Fold 2 in millimetres e.g. 202mm (6mm too long).
4. Take the displayed job setup figure and subtract the actual fold dimension e.g. -6mm
5. Enter this difference (positive or negative) into the Fold 2 Offset setting in the parameters menu,
then leave diagnostics.
6. Run another standard 80g/m
the actual fold length.
