SquareFold® Trimmer Paper Path
Number
Description
1
The booklet leaves the booklet area of the finisher and enters the SquareFold® Trimmer device. The booklet exit sensor, in the SquareFold® Trimmer device, detects the lead-edge spine of the booklet and moves the booklet to the square-fold area.
2
Once the booklet spine reaches the square-fold area, the booklet is clamped and the square-folding operation begins.
3
The booklet is flattened and the spine squared according to the square-fold setting indicated on the control panel.
4
After the booklet is flattened and the spine squared, it is moved to the trimmer 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); this is based on the finished booklet size entered for the trimmer mode setting.
5
The booklet is then moved to the exit area where it is transported to the booklet tray.
Note: Booklets exiting the SquareFold® Trimmer device may contain trim remnants or scraps from the previously trimmed booklet. This is due to static electricity build-up and is normal. If booklets contain trim remnants or scraps, simply remove and discard them.
