7. OPTICAL MARK READING
(OPTIONAL)
The folding and inserting machine can be
equipped with Optical Mark Reading. With this
option the system reads optical marks that have
been specially printed on the documents. This
code contains information about the processing
of the documents. A set can have a varying
number of sheets and according to the printed
code a sheet can be selected from one or more
selective feeders.
The documents with the printed reading code
are placed in the feeder which has been
selected as the "reading" feeder. Depending on
the programmed code the other feeders can be
used as selective feeders.
At first the documents (inclusive the address
carrier) with the printed codes are accumulated.
The selective enclosures are accumulated after
the last document of a set, with a reading code,
is fed.

head.
