Bypass transport option
The bypass transport option provides an interface between the
DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 EPS and your finishing
accessories. However, finishing devices require separate power
sources that are independent of the printing system.
The bypass transport option enables third party finishing devices
to interface directly with the printing system. The bypass
transport allows you to customize your printer for increased
efficiency and specialized applications involving finishing.
NOTE: A bypass transport must be installed for the printing
system to support a third party finishing device.
Function of the
bypass transport
Connected to the last feeder/stacker module, the bypass
transport moves paper from the stacker to a third party finisher
such as a stitcher, booklet maker, tape binder, and so on. By
making selections on the user interface windows, you can
program the printer to send output to the bypass transport, which
directs the output to the finishing equipment.
Paper stocks
supported on
bypass transport
The bypass transport accepts all paper stocks on which the
printer can print, and it accommodates simplex and duplex
printing.
