Questions & Answers
Often, regular paper fails to get caught in the folder, since we only use it for standard paper. If glossy paper folded poorly, I can imagine that it wouldn't work. It is probably necessary to find a higher-grade folder that specifies that it folds heavier or more finished

In our folding machine, we do use 24 lb paper. However, when using thicker paper, I feed smaller batches of paper into the folding feeder.

We bought this machine for use in our church. There are three important steps to reviewing your initial settings before running a large print run
During the first run, you should fold over 125 bulletins correctly, in less than two minutes and it works every time. Even a small error in the setup makes a difference in whether the folders fold perfectly square.
" The machine was purchased to produce small quantities (approximately 200 pieces) A nonprofit organization may be sent mass mailings. The folds are very precise and reliable. Set it so that the address block hits the window in a window envelope, and it does its job perfectly. Has the ability to handle multiple tasks I haven't seen much damage to the page when it is folded. There's a problem with multi-tasking in my complaint A fold in the page. The full-duplex folder's shut down time is very fast, so they have to be hand fed one bundle at a time. You will need to push start again if you do not get the next bundle into the input side quickly enough. If you do not push the start button soon enough, the folder will stop before it gets the next bundle into the input side. Taking care of many animals is more difficult than it appears, because feeding one animal at a time is complicated To insert sheet bundles into the folder, two hands are necessary. Paper must be fed manually, so care must be taken to ensure Unless the documents are kept in their rightful place, they will be tangled and damaged. It is possible to adjust the shut-off valve if the shut-off valve needs to be adjusted It does not seem to be down time to me. Let's get back to the A single-minded individual The automatic feeder makes the folder VERY reliable since sheet jobs are completed in record time. Lastly, here is a quick tip for you By default - It is possible to mix up or interleave folded documents by using the catch arms. If you need to arrange documents (if that's important in your case) quickly and on the fly, be prepared to remove folded documents on the fly quickly in order to avoid the opportunity to interleave and separate documents.
Even the tiniest amount of paper drag puts a strain on the machine. In order for the manufacturer to corner the market on such a small machine and complete the task of making it the best it can be, read on below for a few solutions to a major Only the way the multiple paper folders were set up was disappointing. However, it only works in certain cases. The machine damages whatever it is folding if you fail to feed the multiple pages paper in the feeder in the correct order. There is NO real paper guide. Can't you guys come up with a simple way to align the multiple sheets of paper before feeding them into the rollers? Could you do that, honestly? I can think of a few relatively simple solutions, but either one would be better than none, right? (1) Make two small bracket assemblies that attach to each side of the rear single feed alignment bars, and then have the bracket or alignment bar feed into or be set in the opening of the multiple paper feed station. When making use of multiple page folders, this bracket would only be attached! Secondly, make a paper guide or tray similar to a single feed tray with two or three melt legs on it that can be slid into drilled holes in plastic multi-coat layers, according to the instructions on the package. Cover for the paper feed. I think this could be one of the best folders on the market if it had just a few more features.
As soon as I asked for assistance, the seller referred me to Martin Yale, who informed me that I had purchased a used machine, which was not true for as far as I could tell. They then sent me a replacement part, which took me about 30 minutes to put back together. I tried calling the seller again and he has not returned my phone calls. As a result, my small business is out several hundred dollars that I could not afford to have lost, and I have a useless piece of equipment taking up space in my workroom.
Every time I try to print a batch, it jams before I'm able to finish the stack of paper. In the same vein as the previous four Seven sheets will get pulled in and a bad jam will result. Although I have spoken with the manufacturer, they have not provided solutions that are satisfactory to My goal is to update this as soon as possible.
I can't believe it has taken me so long to take advantage of an automatic fold. It's great to have a folding machine like this. Do not hesitate to set up an appointment if you have been thinking about it for a while. You will notice a big difference in the quality and the impression of the pages you send out when you do this.
It takes a lot of strength to make a folder Usually, those that do a good job with different kinds of paper and finishing are extremely expensive, and I was trying to go with something that was not as costly as those. Ink was limited to 20# paper and the printer did a good job. It wasn't able to handle the paper for a full bleed tri fold on 28# paper as it was designed for a simple flyer / mailer. Papers that are too heavy are more at fault than finishes that are too thin. Nevertheless, it was relatively easy to use - and its adjustments were easy The limitations are just that. After buying the larger machine and paying ten times the price, I couldn't use it for more than one type of project. It isn't a comparison, but it simply couldn't be used for everything.
The performance of this little fella is very good. In the event that I had any cautions to suggest, they would be in the use of On the top there is a three-sheet slot. Using no guides to load your papers in seriously increases the odds that your folded pages will be crooked. The solution is I have used the guides for everything, even for jobs on one or two sheets. It was a good value for.
