INTRODUCTION
The CDM-700 Conveyor transports media from the Printer and stacks it. As the first piece of
stock exits the Printer, the motor-driven Conveyor Tapes under the Stacker Wheels move it. The
next piece of stock exits the Printer, overlaps the preceding piece, and is moved along the
Conveyor. After clearing the Stacker Wheels, the stock can be unloaded by hand without having
to stop the Printer.
