7. Media
7.1 Bypass
For bypass operation no consideration needs to be made for media weight or size, all acceptable printer paper
sizes and weights can be bypassed.
7.2 Binding
When binding a book with the GP-502, be certain to only use the approved paper sizes and weights. Using the
incorrect media weight or size will result in poor performance or no operation at all.
Book Size:
The GP-502 is limited to the size of book to which can bound. The number of sheets that can be bound in one
book is dependent upon the weight and thickness of the media. See the below book size restriction based
upon 75 gsm.
Paper Size:
Two GP-502 models exist, one for binding Letter paper (216x279mm) and another for binding A4 paper
(210x297mm). Each GP-502 can only accept one paper size through the bind paper path (A4 or Letter
respectively).
Book Covers:
Covers are required to ensure proper machine operation and book stacking. Not using covers can result in
jams and damage to the books as they are ejected and stacked. See the below list of approved cover types.
Book Body:
The book body is referring to sheets that are not the out covers and are not inserted tabs. The acceptable
media weight of the body of the book is given below.
Tabs:
The GP-502 is capable of binding books containing tabbed inserts that meet the specification given below. No
adjustment or input is required prior to operating a print job containing tabs. Acceptable tabs must have a
shoulder as shown in the illustration below. When feeding tabs they must be fed such that they leave the
printer with the tab on the trailing edge. Failure to comply with either of these requirements will cause a jam
and will prevent binding of the book.
