Description of the Martin Yale 1711 Paper Folder
The Martin Yale 1711 Electronic Ease-of-Use Autofolder offers some of the latest folding technology available. Forget the hassle of manually configuring your fold plates and fold settings, simply press a few buttons, and the Martin Yale 1711 will automatically configure the fold plates, feed and fold your paper. No need to fan your documents before placing them into the feed tray, all you have to do is put your paper in and watch as it folds up to 9,000 sheets per hour. With 7 different fold types to choose from, including letter, half, z-fold, double parallel, gate, engineering and church, the 1711's electronic controls automatically pre-set letter, legal, and A4 paper sizes.
The paper tray, able to hold up to 150 sheets simultaneously, allows for large folding jobs to be completed quickly. The 1711 automatic folder also features an automatic turn-off sensor that cuts power to the motor once the feed tray is empty of any paper, as well as a conveyor exit table that makes collecting all of your folded documents convenient. The auto jam detect sensor also keeps the 1711 from jamming itself further in the unlikely event of a paper jam, and alerts the user to when a jam has occurred.
Thanks to the enhanced precision skew adjustment, you don't have to worry about your folds coming out incorrectly. The 1711 grants the user easy access to the rollers and offers improved stacking wheels and self-centering paper guides. These features just add to the 1711's simple operation. The conveyor exit table neatly stacks your finished documents for your convenience. Ideal for large mailrooms, associations, and offices, the Martin Yale 1711 proves reliable, user-friendly, and versatile.
Traditionally, a true automatically adjusting folder would cost more than twice the price of the 1711. However, the 1711 can do 90% of what the larger auto folders can do, and has a solid track record too. While there are a few limitations to this folder model, if you're folding regular copy paper and your volume is somewhat low, the 1711 is likely going to be the best automatic folder for you.
If you're looking for an automatic folder that handles paper larger than 11" x 14", consider the Martin Yale 2051. The Martin Yale 1217A & Martin Yale 1812 are manual adjustment folder options that can also handle larger paper sizes.

Q: Will this folder work with glossy paper?
A: The short answer is no. The long answer is "kind-of." For glossy paper you're supposed to use an air-fed paper folder. But since those are so expensive, there are a lot of people who manage to get by using friction folders to run their glossy stock. But it doesn't always work! We recommend calling us at (800) 243-9226 and speaking to a paper folder expert. We'll give instructions for sending samples up for testing.
Q: Can you manually set options for custom folds?
A: You can manually set any fold you like. The machine comes equipped with several common preset folds but you're free to run any customized fold job you need.
Q: Is there any kind of warranty on this product?
A: The manufacturer's warranty protects you for 180-days (parts and labor) against defects in manufacturing. Some other restrictions may apply. We do offer extended service contracts, although the pricing varies by customer location. Please call us at (800) 243-9226 for details.
Q: Is this machine capable of folding multiple sheets at the same time?
A: The Martin Yale 1711 is capable of folding multiple sheets of paper at one time using the manual bypass. Most people doing this are then putting the paper into an envelope, which is a process much better preformed with a folder-inserter. But the 1711 does have a bypass for stapled sets.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ask a Question-
Do you have to manually feed if you are folding 3 sheets at a time?
That is correct. Automatically feeding multiple sheets of paper at one time to create folded sets is a function of a folder-inserter, not a paper folder. In the realm of paper folders only the Martin Yale 1217A can do stapled sets with any kind of appreciable speed.

I am calling from a public school district. Can we order with a PO number? Thanks, Tammee
We do accept purchase orders from schools! We would need a copy of the PO though, not just the number.
