Pre-printed Carrier Feeder assembling and adjusting
Run a job with Maticard Pro software and check the carrier is perfectly centred
inside Mailer Transport; otherwise adjust carrier alignment between Carrier
Feeder and Mailer carrier buffer input avoiding carrier side jams.
Note: during production, Pre-printed Carrier Feeder automatically loads always
maximum Mailer carrier buffer (two carriers for Card Attach 10 and four
carriers for Card Attach 20), even if carriers production is less than buffer size.
Note: for offline carrier alignment purpose, set for a couple of seconds
CONTINUOUS RUN mode, by related switch on Carrier Feeder side, to feed
carriers toward Mailer carrier buffer.
