Description of the main parts Part Description 9 Eject tray The eject tray receives the stack from the stack tray. Then the eject tray moves horizontally out of the stacker. When the eject tray is outside the stacker, you can remove the stack. In the meantime, the filling of the stack tray can continue. When you empty the eject tray regularly, the printer can continue printing. This maximises the productivity.

The eject button LED can have the following statuses: • Off: Normal situation • Blinking slowly (green): The stack will be ejected at the next possible set boundary.
Description of the stacker control panel Status Description 1 stack height indicator is lit. The stack tray contains at least 1 sheet. All stack height indicators are lit. The stack height comes close to the factory default value of 302 mm (11.9"). Stacks with a height of maximum 302 mm (11.9") are always ejected properly. For higher stacks, there is a risk that the top sheets touch the underside of the slide door when ejected.

Chapter 3 Basic instructions
Turn the stacker on Turn the stacker on The power switch is optional. When the switch is missing, the high capacity stacker is turned on automatically when the printer is turned on. CAUTION Never plug in the power plug while your hands are wet. Doing so creates the risk of electric shock. Illustration [3] The location of the power switch Procedure 1. 2. 3. 4. 16 Confirm that the power plug is plugged securely into a power outlet. Open the power switch cover.

Eject a stack manually Eject a stack manually Eject a stack When you press the eject button on the stack‐ er Then 1x The eject button on the stacker control panel blinks slowly (green). The stack will be ejected on the next possible set boundary. Then the filling of the stacker continues. Therefore, the stack will usually contain complete sets. 2x The eject button on the stacker control panel blinks fast (green). The stack will be ejected as soon as possible.

Filling scenarios Filling scenarios Filling scenarios 20 Scenario Description Filling with default settings The stack tray is filled until the stack reaches the factory default height of 302 mm (11.9"). Then the stack is ejected. Next job, next tray Each new job is delivered to an empty stack tray. Maximum tray filling To optimise the productivity, In the Settings Editor: [Preferences] you can set the stack height to > [Print job defaults] -> [Stacker] -> maximum 355 mm (14.0").
Change the default stacker settings Change the default stacker settings Introduction In the Settings Editor on the PRISMAsync controller, a key operator can define a number of default stacker settings ([Preferences] -> [Print job defaults] - [Stacker]). These settings are described below. Some of these default settings can be overruled in an application, on the printer operator panel and in the printer driver. NOTE The [Stacker] section also displays settings for other stackers.
Change the default stacker settings Setting Description [Maximum stack height] See the section 'Set the maximum stack height'. Procedure 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 22 Access the Settings Editor on the PRISMAsync controller. Click [Preferences] - [Print job defaults]. Scroll down to the [Stacker] section. Click the setting you want to change. Change the value. Click [OK].
Set the maximum stack height Set the maximum stack height Introduction The maximum stack height is 355 mm (14") or 3,000 sheets A4/LTR (80 g/m² / 20 lb bond). However, to guarantee a safe ejection of the stack, the factory default is set to 302 mm (11.9"). Depending on your needs, you can set the maximum stack height to a higher or lower value. When the stack reaches the specified height, the stack is ejected.
Set the minimum filling level Set the minimum filling level Introduction NOTE The [Minimum filling level] setting is only applied when, on the printer control panel, the [Next output tray] setting is set to [When tray is full] (under [System] -> [Setup] -> [Workflow profile] -> [Output]). Purposes The [Minimum filling level] setting has the following purposes. • Maximise the time that the printer can run unattended. • Keep sets together.
Examples of using the [Maximum stack height] and the [Minimum filling level] settings Examples of using the [Maximum stack height] and the [Minimum filling level] settings Example 1 - Fill a box Assumption In the Settings Editor, the [Maximum stack height] setting is set to 302 mm (11.9"). In the Settings Editor, the [Minimum filling level] setting is set to 80%. 1 job using plain paper with a stack height > 302 mm (11.9").
Examples of using the [Maximum stack height] and the [Minimum filling level] settings 250 mm / 9.8” 80% 250 mm / 9.8” 80% Example 3 - Keep sets together Assumption In the Settings Editor, the [Maximum stack height] setting is set to 302 mm (11.9"). In the Settings Editor, the [Minimum filling level] setting is set to 80%. 1 job with a stack height of 100 mm (3.9"). 4 copies required. What happens? The sets are stacked. At the end of each set, the controller calculates whether the next set will fit.
