5.9.4 Offset fold setting
After finished paper data setting (chapter 5.5), go to the folding data setting.
Choose the offset fold; its icon will appear in the fold type. And the preset data
will automatic setup. For example, the paper of 420mm long will need folding
line 1: 105mm (420/4 = 105mm); folding line 2: 210mm (420/4*2=210mm).
The roller position will setup, too. Those value can be changed manually. User
can change roller position to other value (such as 210mm), as long as the
product in the outfeed area will not crash next product and still be pressed by
the outfeed roller smoothly. For the Shingle, it will change the distance that
the second sheet stack on the first sheet. Larger value make two sheets far
away; smaller value make two sheets closer. Click return button after finished
setting, the data will show up in the screen. Then, user can go to run screen
for the job.
Note: Sometime, the folding lines’ value is changing base on real situation
(thickness, filming, and printing else), it might not be exactly half of the length.
The value for roller position and shingle is same ideas, they might need to
change with the real situation. For example, the following photo shows that
the first sheet has about 30mm distance away from the outfeed exit. Then,
second sheet can outfeed normally without crash.
