LaserMatrix Floor Model Stacker 1
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
The LaserMatrix®Floor Model Stacker (Models
LM1000A115 & LM2400A100) will stack up to one full box of
printed forms from a LaserMatrix printer.
In the automatic mode, the stacker is controlled by the
printer. When the printer prints, the stacker turns two pairs of
floating helical coils which “refold” and then stack the fanfolded
paper. The coils float up with the paper as the stack grows in
height.
LB0-B1
The LaserMatrix Stacker solves a problem common to
continuous form laser printers. The problem arises when a laser
printer fuses toner to the paper. In the process, heat and pressure
from the fuser iron out the perforations in the forms. The
“ironed-out” forms are more difficult to refold and stack.

2 LaserMatrix Floor Model Stacker
The LaserMatrix Floor Model Stacker allows you to
reliably print large jobs unattended — up to one full box of
paper. The stacker handles most grades of fanfolded paper and
label stock made for a laser printer.
NOTE: Due to variations in manufacturing process, quality,
and composition of forms, Output Technology cannot guarantee
satisfactory performance with all forms. Forms should be tested
to verify satisfactory performance prior to purchasing forms.
The stacker also includes a convenient and stable platform
for the printer itself.
