If there s one office task that nobody likes to do, it s folding paper. It s a bit tedious, very time consuming, and can lead to painful paper cuts. Thanks to technology, we now have machines that can fold paper for us. One of these devices is the Formax FD305 Desktop Paper Folder. This is actually a rather small machine that would be perfect for cramped workspaces. It even has both manual and automatic operating modes. Here are all of the details on the Formax FD305. Check them out so you can determine is this the right product for your workplace.
The Details:
* Operating the FD305 is incredibly easy. You just need to load your sheets and then press a button. In seconds, your document(s) will be folded.
* The FD305 has a hopper capacity of 20 sheets of 20 lb. paper. It can fold up to 20 sheets per minute. You can fold paper that s up to 8.5 wide by 11 long (i.e. letter sized). When the sheets are folded, they ll land in a catch tray that s right on the front of the device.
* This machine can be fed either automatically or manually. In manual mode, it can fold up to 3 sheets at a time instead of just one.
* The FD305 isn t particularly big so you don t have to worry about it taking over your desk. It has dimensions of 12 (length) x 5.6 (width) x 12.5 (height). This device only weighs 10 pounds, so moving it won t be difficult at all. It also looks great.
* This machine can only do one fold: the C fold in which a sheet is folded into thirds. While this will prepare your documents for mailing, if you need other folds, you should choose a different machine.
* This folder will cease operating automatically after the last sheet has exited the device. This can help you save electricity and it makes this product very user friendly.
* If any of your sheets get jammed, the FD305 has a jam release lever you can use. It will get you back to folding in no time.
* This product is pretty affordably priced. It will help you save in labor costs (i.e. employee wages, the cost of hiring a temp, etc.) so over time, the folder will end up paying for itself many times over.
The Verdict:
The Formax FD305 is a great little folder. It would be ideal for administrative professionals given it s folding abilities and its small size. This would even be a good product for use in the home. While it would be nice if it could automatically fold more than one page at a time, it nonetheless offers a great folding solution for not a lot of cash. If you need a device that can help you with your paper folding duties, check out the FD305. You re going to find it to be a very helpful machine that will save you time and frustration, as well as prevent your fingers from getting covered in nasty paper cuts.
