CAUTION Ensure that both Table 1 and 2 aren’t warped and properly fitted on the studs (a) (b) (c) and (d).
Place the paper printed side down in case of fold-out. Place the paper on the feed table so that it touches the paper guide and then tighten the paper guide setscrews. Lower the paper feed table lever and set the paper. If the paper does not come in contact with the paper feed roller, it may be fed incorrectly. In such case, the leading edge of the paper may touch the guide plate in the front and prevent the paper from being fed. Reset it by pulling it backwards.

Check if the paper has been folded correctly by examining the second of the 2 folded sheets. * When the fold position is not correct, refer to ‘Adjusting Paper Fold Position’.
