Useful information about the KS 4000 OL / OLC
The KS 4000 OL/OLC is a sophisticated mail
processing system for finishing computer-
generated mass mailings. The system can
collect material, divert office duplicates, fold,
insert and seal material in a finished
envelope.
Each KS 4000 OL/OLC inserting system
consists of modular components configured
according to the customer’s requirements,
and can be easily expanded at any time.
Important performance characteristics are:
– Simple and sure operation using fully-
electronic document controls. The inserting
system signals errors and empty feeder
stations.
– Program memory. All parameters that
govern the system’s operations (e.g.
document length, transport speed, marks
recognition routines) are stored in program
memories.
– Feeds EDP-generated documents reliably
and quickly from the single-sheet feeder
(laser printed, stacked single sheets) or
from the automatic cutter (continuous-feed
paper).
– FP-folding flap principle. The folding-flap in
the inserter makes it possible to fold and
insert various kinds of material in a single
handling cycle. Material that is stapled or
paperclipped or has a rigid plastic card
affixed can be processed safely and
reliably.

Operator Manual KS 4000 OL / OLC
Available options include:
– Optical marks recognition (OMR). Code
marks printed on each sheet being
processed instruct the system to collect
and check material addressed to a single
address and / or to divert material that
should not be mailed.
– Feed unfolded or folded supplementary
materials from a feeder/folding feeder
placed on the conveyor.
– Fold oversized or broadsheet material in
the crossfold unit (lateral transport unit and
folder) before inserting.
Three common system configurations are
shown on the fold-out pages 3 and 124.
– For processing online continuous-feed
material (e.g. invoices, circulars, account
statements)
– For processing laser-printed single-sheet
material
– For processing oversized online
continuous-feed material with a crossfold
unit.
