SquareFold Trimmer User Guide 1

The SquareFold Trimmer Module is an optional finishing

device that is used in conjunction with another optional

finishing device that contains a booklet maker.

Overview

The SquareFold Trimmer Module:

Receives the booklet from the booklet maker area of the•

finisher,

Flattens the booklet spine, thereby reducing the•

booklet’s thickness and giving it the appearance of a

perfect-bound book, and

Trims/cuts away the face (edge) of the booklet,•

resulting in a neat finished edge.

Introduction

SquareFold Trimmer Module

Tip: Always refer to the Hints and Tips section of this manual

before using the SquareFold Trimmer Module. The Hints and

Tips section provides valuable information about setting up

your jobs, which in turn ensures the best possible output for

your print/copy jobs.

Note 1: The booklet is assembled and stapled in the booklet

area of the finisher; therefore, the booklet enters the

SquareFold Trimmer Module already assembled. Any

adjustments to the image of the original and its

lacement on the booklet

age must be done either from

the machine’s UI or from your print driver.

Note 2: You may want to run one or more test prints/copies

before running larger jobs.

The booklet leaves the booklet area of the finisher and enters

SquareFold Trimmer Module.

Once the booklet spine reaches the square fold area, the

booklet is clamped and the square-folding operation begins.

The booklet is flattened and the spine squared according to

the square-fold setting indicated on the control panel.

For detailed information on each of Square Fold settings,

refer to page 6.

After the booklet is flattened and the spine squared, it is

moved to the trimmer area.

The booklet then moves to the exit area where it is

transported to the Booklet Output Tray.

Paper path

The Booklet Exit sensor (in the SquareFold Trimmer Module)

detects the lead edge (spine) of booklet and moves the

booklet to square fold area.

Based on the finished booklet size, the booklet is moved

until the trail edge reaches the trimmer cutter.

The trail edge is trimmed/cut (based on the finished

booklet size entered for the Trimmer Mode Setting).

Tip: Booklets exiting/leaving the SquareFold Trimmer

Module may contain trim remnants/scraps from the

reviously trimmed booklet. This is due to static electricity

build-up and is normal. If booklets contain trim

remnants/scraps, simply remove and discard them.

SquareFold Trimmer User Guide

Overview

The Square Fold Settings are found on the SquareFold

Trimmer Module control panel. The settings can be switched

on or off based on user preference. When the settings are

switched on, you can select one of five options depending on

your requirements for the finished booklet job:

+2: Use this setting when you want the most amount of

pressure applied to the spine of the booklet. The more

pressure applied to the booklet, the more square the booklet

spine will be. +2 is the greatest amount of pressure that can

be applied to the booklet.

Additionally, you may want to select this setting when your

finished booklet is five pages or less and on heavier weight

paper (200 g/m² or greater).

+1: Use this setting when you want a greater amount of

pressure applied to the spine of the booklet, but not as much

pressure as the +2 setting uses.

Square Fold Settings

Auto: This is the machine default setting and is used for

most jobs.

-1: Use this setting when you want less pressure applied to

the spine of the booklet. The less pressure applied to the

booklet, the more rounded the booklet spine will be.

-2: Select this setting when your finished booklet is five pages

or less and on lighter weight paper (100 g/m² or lower). -2 is

the least amount of pressure that can be applied to the

booklet.

Choose the setting that best fits your needs for the booklet

output.

Note: You may want to run one or more test prints/copies

before running larger jobs.
