The following table shows which cassette size
should be used with which inserts.
• When filling a magazine with cassettes, ensure
that the cassette side to be imprinted is to the
left after insertion.
• If cassettes are individually loaded, be certain
that they are aligned properly and that there
are no gaps between the cassettes.
• To achieve this, use your finger to carefully lift
the cassettes slightly from below, then release
them—they should then lie in the magazine
properly ( see Fig. 32 ).
When filling the magazines, no
gaps may exist between the
cassettes.
