The Stacker/Stapler
Introduction
The stacker/stapler (either Finisher-AF1 or Finisher-AK1) can stack and staple your prints. When
the Saddle Finisher (either Saddle Finisher-AF1 or Saddle Finisher-AK2) is available, you can also
create half-folded, saddle-stitched booklets. Furthermore, an optional Puncher Unit can be
integrated in the stacker/stapler to punch the prints.
NOTE
See the Operation guide of Finisher-AF1/Saddle Finisher-AF2/Puncher Unit-BP1/BQ1/BR1, or
Finisher-AK1/Saddle Finisher-AK2/Puncher Unit-BT1/BU1 for detailed information about the
stacker/stapler.
