SECTION 5 – Troubleshooting
The following trouble-shooting guide is provided to assist you in solving problems that might
occur with the tabber.
Jams
CONDITION
SOLUTION
Media jams in transport section of Tabber.
1. Check alignment of Feeder to Tabber. Media
should be feed between 1/8” to 1/32” from
the Media Guide Fence in the tabber.
2. Check that the two Media Hold-Down Guides
are not pressing down too firmly on the
media.
3. Check that the Registration Assembly is not
pushing the paper too tightly against the
Media Guide Fence. This can stall the media.
4. Transport pressure may be too tight.
Check/adjust Media Thickness Adjustment.
Tab Placement Problems
CONDITION
SOLUTION
Tabs are not placed in the same spot on
the media.
Tabs should be placed within +/- 1/8”
1. Check/adjust the pitch setting for the tab. It
should be 0.005 to 0.010 more than the tab
size plus the space between the tabs.
2. Check to be sure the V-Tab adjustment is
correct for this stock.
3. Check Media Thickness Adjustment. Too
little transport pressure can cause the media to
slip when it is being fed.
4. Check that the pointer on the applicator head
is in the center of the tab.
5. Check to be sure the press roll, for tab drive,
is engaged. If this roller is not engage, the tab
drive roller will slip on the tab stock.
More of the tab is on the top of the media
than on the bottom.
Adjust the fine adjustment knob clockwise to
move more of the tab to the bottom side of
the media.
