C. Troubleshooting:
This section will lay out the troubleshooting steps for when sheets are
not being hooked on the twin loop wire tips. In some cases, it will also
create a Jam code. J202, J203 and J244 are the most likely Jam to be
caused as a result of poor hooking. Before changing any settings on
the eWire™ Pro or Punch, review each trouble shooting step below.

Verify that the eWire™ Pro is properly docked to the
upstream device and confirm that there is no misalignment
between the devices.

Check that printed sheets do not have excess curl. When
laid on a flat surface, no edge of the paper should be higher
than 3/8in (10mm). Review the printer manual to resolve this
if present.

Inspect the element spool for damage, if the wire is damaged
removed the damaged length of wire or replace the spool
with one of the same size.

Verify the proper element size is being used for the amount
of sheets in the book being run. Refer to the chart in Section
10

Examine your unhooked sheet for damage around the holes,
this can manifest as tears or imprints. If any is present,
contact service.

When binding with paper of 300 gsm with grain orientation in
the direction of paper flow, paper jams may occur depending
on the stiffness of the media. Using a different, less rigid,
cover media may remove the problem.
D. Punch Hole Quality:
If the punch upstream of the eWire™ Pro is not punching holes within
specification, the binding capabilities of the eWire™ Pro will be reduced,
resulting in jams and unhooked sheets.
1. Using the Hole Position Tool provided, confirm the backgage depth
and alignment of a single punched sheet. To use the tool, take a
punched, unbound sheet of paper and align it with the either the
"LTR" or "A4" corner, depending on the paper size. The black lines
should faintly visible behind the sheet, when the punch is properly
aligned, the black circles will be evenly visible around all of the
punch holes.
2. If the holes do not align with the outlines on the tool, refer to the
Multi Function Professional Puncher-B1 user manual to make
adjustments to the hole position.
E. Element Closing:
A properly closed element is circular. It allows the pages to turn without
restricting the paper, while not allowing sheets to fall out of the binding.
Above is a diagram of a correctly closed element. The element is
considered under-closed if it is possible to pull a sheet out of the twin
loop binding by pulling on the end of the sheet. The element is
considered over-closed if the element is oval shaped. If the element is
under-closed increase the closer value in the LCD tree, decrease this
value instead if the element is over-closed. After changing the setting
run a new book and inspect its element.
