Chapter 3 Basic operations
Make a perfect-bound book Make a perfect-bound book Introduction The perfect binder is an optional finisher. This finisher enables you to create a perfectbound book. # NOTE • Perfect binding is only available for print jobs, not for copy jobs. • Perfect binding can only be applied to a job via job preparation software like the driver, PRISMAPrepare, or other job preparation applications. • On the operator panel perfect binding can only be disabled for a job, but can not be enabled for a job.
Types of paper that can be used Paper and finished sizes Types of paper that can be used Introduction Use the appropriate paper to get the best results from the binder. If the wrong type of paper is used, it could cause defect in binding or paper jams. This machine can use the following types of paper for perfect binding.
Types of paper that can be used Paper weight # Paper Weight Cover Body pages/Slip sheets 90 to 300 g/m2 *1 60 to 163 g/m² Paper weights and the number of sheets that can be bound are listed below.
Types of paper that can be used • Body page / slip sheets Width (1): 257.0 (B5) to 320.0 mm (12.60") Length (2): 182.0 (B5) to 228.6 mm (9") +: can be used; -: can not be used# Paper size Possible uses Cover Body pages / Slip sheets A3 + - B4 + - 13" x 19" (330 x 483 mm) + - 12" x 18" (305 x 457 mm) + - 11" x 17" (ledger) + - SRA3 (320 x 450 mm) (12.50" x 17.72") + - A4 - + B5 - + LTR - + SRA4 (225 x 320 mm) (8.86" x 12.
Finished sizes of booklets Finished sizes of booklets Introduction This machine can bind various sizes of booklets. The sizes of the finished booklets differ according to the cutting method. The following table shows relations between sizes of the finished booklets and sizes of cover and body pages / slip sheets. Be sure to confirm the cutting range is within the available ranges shown below. Top/bottom cutting range is the total of top cutting range and bottom cutting range.
Finished sizes of booklets *1 If the length (L) defined as 1, be sure to set the ration of the width (W) between 1.25 and 1.5. *2 Be sure to make the width of W1 (width of body pages / slip sheets) less than the width of W2 (width of cover), when 3-direction cutting is done. *3 For good looking finished booklets, the maximum length of cover you can set is 487.7 mm. 487.7 mm includes the total of the following values.
Finished sizes of booklets The paper sizes inside the wide frame of the table are the finished size of the booklets # Cover 13" x 19" Body pages / slip sheets 9" x 12" SRA4 (320 x 225 mm) A4 LTR B5 SRA3 (320 x 450 mm) A3 11" x 17" B4 LTR A4 B5 7" x 9" 7" x 9" A5 # NOTE If the paper size is not registered in the printer, be sure to use it after registering in the printer as an irregular paper size.
Load paper into the sheet inserter Load paper into the sheet inserter Introduction Paper loaded into the sheet inserter can be supplied as covers or slip sheets. The sheet inserter is able to use paper that cannot be supplied from the printer or side paper deck (color copied paper, etc.) as cover paper and slip sheets. # IMPORTANT • Be sure to fan paper before loading it. • If paper is curled (particular color copied paper), be sure to remove the curl before using the paper.
Load paper into the sheet inserter Loading paper into the trays 1. Adjust the slide guide to fit the loaded paper. • When using the upper tray. - Align with the slide guide scale. • When using the lower tray. - Align with the slide guide scale. 2. Load the paper into the sheet inserter. # IMPORTANT To prevent paper jams when loading multiple sheets of paper, fan the stack of paper a number of times and then even up its edges before loading it.
Load paper into the sheet inserter # NOTE • You cannot load paper of different sizes. • Paper loaded in the sheet inserter cannot be used for copying. • A maximum of 200 sheets (80 g/m2) can be loaded at one time. • Paper is fed from the top sheet. • Loading paper in the upper tray. - The following paper sizes can be loaded. Width (side to side): 257.0 to 320.0 mm Length (in direction of transfer): 182.0 to 228.
Load paper into the sheet inserter • Loading paper into the lower tray. - The following paper sizes can be loaded. Width (side to side): 257.0 to 330.2 mm Length (in direction of transfer): 182.0 to 487.7 mm - Load the paper with the surface that will be the cover facing up and with the sheets aligned against the back of the tray. Make sure that the back edge of the loaded paper aligns with the indicator on the tray. (The following illustration shows the paper loaded for leftward orientation.
Remove finished booklets Remove finished booklets Introduction Use the following procedure to remove bound booklets from the stacker. # CAUTION • Do not do operations other than removing booklets. Putting your hand into the binder from the stacker may cause an injury. • Take care to avoid cutting your hands on the edges of the booklets when re- moving them. • Do not use the stacker as storage. Using the stacker as storage could cause a malfunction.
Remove finished booklets # NOTE • This operation can be performed while the device is operating. • The stacker can hold up to approximately 127 mm (equivalent to 10 booklets of 100 pages of 64 g/m2 body pages / slip sheets and a cover of one 128 g/m2 sheet) or approximately 1000 sheets as a total. However, if the booklets contain body pages / slip sheets that are heavier than 81 g/m2, the stacker may not be able to hold booklets up to approximately 127.
Remove finished booklets 2. Remove the booklets from the stacker. # CAUTION Do not move the stacker's guide with your hand. Moving the guide may cause a malfunction. # IMPORTANT Be sure to remove all the booklets when the stacker is open. The stacker is recognized as full if any booklets are left in it. 3. Close the stacker. Close it until it clicks into place. # CAUTION Be careful not to pinch your fingers in the gaps when the stacker is closing.
Discard cuttings Discard cuttings Introduction Use the following procedure to remove cuttings from the trimmer waste unit. # CAUTION • Do not place a plastic bag or other secondary container in the trimmer waste tray. Doing so reduces the capacity of the trimmer waste tray and does not allow it to collect enough cuttings. It might also cause a malfunction. • Do not use the trimmer waste unit as storage. Using the trimmer waste unit as storage could cause a malfunction.
Discard cuttings 2. Remove the trimmer waste tray and discard the cuttings. 3. Place back the trimmer waste tray and close the trimmer waste unit. Close the trimmer waste unit by pressing until it clicks into place. # NOTE If you open the trimmer waste unit while the binder is operating, quickly remove the cuttings and close the trimmer waste unit.
Replenish glue Replenish glue Introduction Use the following procedure to refill the glue. # CAUTION Use the genuine glue for this binder to replenish the glue. Using a type of glue other than the genuine glue may cause the binder to malfunction. # IMPORTANT Note the following precautions when storing the glue. • Avoid places near open flame. • Avoid locations subject to high temperature or humidity. • Store it someplace that is out of reach of children.
Replenish glue Fill the glue container with glue so it is even and level and does not go over the limit mark. # CAUTION • Do not allow glue to get into the binder's mechanical parts through the gaps in the binder. If glue gets into the binder's mechanical parts it could cause a malfunction. • Do not put anything other than glue into the glue container. If something other than glue gets into the glue container it could cause a fire or a malfunction.
Replenish glue # NOTE The glue that is added to the glue container is transferred to the binder as the glue in the binder is consumed. The binder can hold about 380 g of glue.
Clean the binder Clean the binder Introduction Clean the outside of the machine if it gets dirty after using it for a long period of time. Please note the following points to prevent malfunctions or electric shock when cleaning the machine. # WARNING • Turn off the power switch and unplug the power plug (see ‘How to turn the main power off’ on page 34). It may result in a fire or electric shock. • Never plug in or unplug the power plug while your hands are wet.
