Overview:
- The Martin Yale Rapidfold P7200 automatic desktop paper folder is ideal for small to medium sized mailrooms and offices.
- The small and compact design of the P7200 means that it doesn't take a lot of space in your office or mailroom and makes it convenient to place the machine beside your postage meter or desktop printer.
- This light volume paper folding machine is great for organizations that occasionally need to fold letter, statements, invoices, flyers, bulletins and correspondence.
Strengths / Features:
- The Martin Yale Rapidfold P7200 is designed to take letter sized (8.5" x 11") sheets and fold them in half or into a letter-fold for insertion into a standard number ten envelope.
- The P7200 is a step up from a small desktop letter folder that needs to be fed by hand, one document at a time. You can add a stack of paper up to 1/2" thick onto the feed tray of the P7200 and it will conveniently feed each sheet and eject the stacked sheets into the stacking tray.
- The Rapidfold P7200 also has a manual bypass slot that allows you to fold up to 3 sheets at a time including stapled sets by hand feeding them one set at a time.
Weaknesses / Limitations:
- The Martin Yale Rapidfold P7200 is an excellent personal paper folding machine that is designed for folding folding letters, statements or invoices. However, it is not designed for folding thick paper stocks, glossy papers or coated sheets. It is specifically designed for folding sheets that are between 16lb and 28lb bond.
- This machine is only designed to fold letter sized 8.5" x 11" sheets. The slightly larger Rapidfold P7400 will handle both letter and legal sized sheets. However, users who need to fold custom sheet sizes should probably consider moving up to either the 1501x or the 1601 paper folding machines.
- The Martin Yale P7200 is only designed to perform two folding patterns. It can fold sheets in half and it can fold sheets into a letter. If you need to fold sheets into other patterns such as a z-fold, church-fold, gate-fold or baronial fold you will need a larger more feature rich folding machine.
- This machine is what is commonly referred to as a manual setup paper folder. This simply means that you need to manually adjust the paper stops on the fold plates to the correct positions in order to change folding patterns. Adjusting the fold plates can be a little bit tricky especially for inexperienced users. For this reason, the P7200 is probably best suited for organizations that do not need to switch folding patterns on a regular basis. Larger auto setup folding machines can simplify the movement of the folding plates but also cost considerably more than the P7200.
Recommendation:
- The Martin Yale P7200 Rapidfold paper folder is great for organizations that need to fold a few hundred documents per week or are looking for a convenient folding solution to fold a few dozen sheets at a time.
- For organizations that need to fold more documents than this, need to create a number of different folding patterns or need to use paper sizes other than 8.5" x 11" the features and construction of the P7200 are probably not going to meet your needs.
- Still, this paper folder is an excellent choice for users who are looking for a small folding machine to place beside their printer, copier or postage meter for on demand production of letters, statements, invoices and mailers.
