* Note:
It is necessary to use the recommended creasing width channel for different paper thickness. If the inappropriate
crease width is used (usually narrow creasing channel for thick paper) inaccuracies in the position of the crease may ap-
pear, the crease will be placed at different distances than what is set on the display. If the narrow crease channel is used
with thick paper the paper will be pressed into the creasing channel, the rollers will start to slip trying to release the paper,
in this case the wider crease channel should be used.
