5.5.1 Batching
Batching allows a preset number of filled envelopes to be processed before the machine
automatically stops. From the Run Job menu, select the job you wish to set a batch for, and
press
 . This displays the Status screen, which will be in ‘Ready’ mode. Now press x and
a list of options will be shown. Select ‘Batch Count’, and you will enter the batch screen, as
shown below.
For ‘Batch’, select ‘Auto-restart’ (machine will pause for a set length of time and then restart
- see below for ‘Pause time’) or ‘Pause’ (machine will stop and will only restart when the Run
button is pressed).
Enter the required quantity in the batch.
‘Jog Step’ allows a gap between envelope batches to be set on the conveyor. The units
shown are multiples of the envelope overlap, as adjusted by the knob on the conveyor. This
means a suitable gap can be set without disturbing the knob.
‘Pause Time’ is the number of seconds before the machine auto-restarts.
