The Staple Finisher and Booklet Finisher are equipped with the following finishing modes.
 CAUTION |
|
Do not place your fingers or hands on the finisher when the finisher is in use. Doing so may result in personal injury or damage to the finisher.
 When removing paper from the tray of the finisher, do not place your hands on the output tray of the finisher. The tray may move upward and your hands may get caught.
|
|
IMPORTANT
|
|
Do not place anything other than output paper in the trays of the finisher, as doing so may damage the trays.
Do not place anything under the trays of the finisher, as doing so may damage the trays.
 |
|
NOTE
|
|
If the Collate or Group mode is set, the output trays move downward as the stack of paper that is output increases in quantity and thickness. Once an output tray has reached its stacking limit, subsequent prints are automatically delivered to the next available tray. If all of the available trays have reached their stacking limits, printing stops temporarily. Remove all of the output paper from the trays. The trays move upward, and printing resumes.
|
The prints are automatically collated into sets arranged in page order. The collated print sets can be shifted by pressing [Offset].
All prints of the same original page are grouped together. The grouped print sets can be shifted by pressing [Offset].
The print output is shifted alternately to the front and back of the tray, in a vertical (portrait) orientation, or a horizontal (landscape) orientation, depending on the orientation of your originals. For example, if you place A4R originals, the paper is output and shifted in the horizontal direction. If you place A4 originals, the paper is output and shifted in the vertical direction.
|
NOTE
|
|
If you press [Offset] when either the Collate or Group mode is set, each set of prints is shifted approximately 30 mm before it is delivered to the output tray.
|
The prints are automatically collated into sets arranged in page order and stapled. Prints are stapled in the following places:
If an original is placed on the platen glass:
|
Corner Staple Area
|
Double Staple Area
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
*1 Upper Left
*2 Upper Right
*3 Lower Right
*4 Lower Left
|
*5 Left Side
*6 Right Side
|
If originals are placed in the feeder:
|
Corner Staple Area
|
Double Staple Area
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
*1 Upper Left
*2 Upper Right
*3 Lower Right
*4 Lower Left
|
*5 Left Side
*6 Right Side
|
|
CAUTION |
|
Do not place your hands in the part of the tray where stapling is performed (near the rollers) when a finisher is attached, as this may result in personal injury.
 |
|
IMPORTANT
|
|
If the Staple mode is set, the output trays move downward as the stack of paper that is output increases in quantity and thickness. Once the output tray has reached its stacking limit, printing and stapling stop temporarily. When all of the stapled prints from the output tray are removed, and printing and stapling resume.
Do not pull copies or prints out of the output area while they are being stapled. Remove the copies or prints after they are output to one of the output trays.
You cannot staple tracing paper, transparencies, or labels.
The following paper sizes cannot be stapled: A5R, free size/custom size (100 mm x 148 mm to 297 mm x 487.7 mm).

The following paper sizes can be stapled: A3, A4, A4R
The maximum numbers of sheets that can be stapled are as follows:
A4: 50 sheets of paper (60 to 80 g/m2), 30 sheets of paper (81 to 105 g/m2), 2 sheets of paper (106 to 256 g/m2)

If the machine stops while stapling and the message <Load staples.> appears, almost all of the staples have been used, and the staple cartridge must be replaced. To proceed, replace the staple cartridge. (See "Replacing the Staple Cartridge in the Stapler Unit.")
