Optical Mark Recognition (OMR)

4.2.1

General

The folding and inserting system can be equipped with Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) or
Flex-OMR. This allows the system to read special codes that have been printed on the
documents. These codes contain information about the processing of the sheets. With
Flex-OMR, the system can also ‘read’ non-Formax codes.

The sheets with the printed code are placed in a feeder. Depending on the programmed
code, the other feeders can be used as selective feeders to add enclosures.

In case of a zig-zag fold, the address has to be printed on the last page of the set. With
the other fold types, the first sheet of a set always contains the address. A full length code
is printed on every sheet of a set.

The code on the last sheet of the set contains the insert instruction. The other sheets
carry the accumulate instruction. If a parity check is used, this is checked on each sheet.
If the set contains only one sheet, it is the ‘last’ sheet. The code must appear in the same
location on every page regardless of the actual code length.
