The Foton 30 takes that work away. ACCO say the integrated 30 page feeder keeps documents straight as they enter, sensors find the leading and trailing edge for trimming, and a light warns when the film is low or empty. Three modes cover the jobs a feeder cannot: auto feed with auto trim, manual feed with auto trim, and manual feed with manual trim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eACCO list paper sizes from 125 x 153mm up to 297 x 420mm, which is A3, with the auto feed taking 65 to 120gsm paper. Heavier stock and odd shaped items go through by hand in manual mode, which the ACCO datasheet rates up to 250gsm. The same datasheet gives film thickness as 75 to 125 micron, a 4 roller system, a warm up of 3 to 4 minutes, speeds of 650 to 700mm per minute and auto switch off after 15 minutes.
