Written by Jeff McRitchie

Overview: - The Martin Yale P6400
desktop paper folder is designed to quickly and easily fold letters for
placement inside a number ten envelope or to fold paper in half.
- It is designed to comfortably sit on your desk or beside your printer so that it can process documents as you create them.
- The P6400 is an inexpensive personal folding machine that is an ideal addition to most small or home offices.
Strengths / Features: - With
a selling price of around $250 the Martin Yale P6400 offers an
excellent value for your money. It is one of the least expensive
personal folding machines on the market.
- Like the P6200, the
Martin Yale P6400 paper folder is extremely compact and can easily sit
on your desk or beside your desktop laser or inkjet printer. This
allows you to quickly and easily fold documents as your produce them
without ever having to leave your desk.
- The P6400 is
incredibly simple to use. Unlike many paper folders that require
extensive setup for folding, the P6400 has only two settings. One
setting is for folding letters for placement into standard sized
envelopes. The other setting is for folding letter sized documents in
half.
- This machine can even fold multiple sheets of paper at
a time. You can feed up to three sheets of paper into a letter fold or
up to five sheets of paper with a half fold.
Weaknesses / Limitations: - The
P6400 is a hand fed folding machine and thus is not equipped with a
feed tray. The P6400 is designed for folding one document at a time as
the paper is produced. Users who need to fold larger numbers of sheets
or who want automatic feeding capabilities will need to choose a larger
folding machine.
- The P6400 is designed for folding 20lb and
24lb letter sized paper using either a letter fold or a half fold. This
is an improvement over the P6200 which can only perform one folding
pattern. However, larger more feature rich folding machines can handle
other sizes and thicknesses of paper and can fold sheets into numerous
other patterns. If you think you might need to fold thicker paper
stocks, larger sheet sizes or produce other folding patterns then you
might want to consider one of Martin Yale's larger Autofolding machines.
- The
P6400 is designed for light volume folding applications and for the
folding of documents one at a time as they are created. If you attempt
to fold large volumes of paper using the P6400 you will most certainly
be disappointed. It is simply not designed for volume applications and
will not hold up over time if you attempt to fold large numbers of
sheets per day.
Recommendation: - The
Martin Yale P6400 is an excellent choice for workers who are looking
for a paper folding machine to use at their desk along with their laser
or inkjet printer. It's also a great choice for the home office worker.
- It's
small form factor and simple operation make it an ideal choice for
light volume folding of letters and documents as they are produced.
- It
is perfect for organizations that need to fold a few documents per day
and don't need to fold thicker papers or any paper size other than 8.5"
x 11".
- However, organizations that need to fold larger
volumes, other paper sizes or thicker stocks should consider a larger
Martin Yale paper folding machine.
