Staple operation
The staple operation staples 2 to 30 sheets of printed pages together into one set and then delivers it to the
output bin 3.
The staple sequence is as follows:
1. The stapler/stacker controller rotates the paddle motor to disengage the output bin 3 upper delivery
roller from the output bin 3 lower delivery roller.
2. The printed page from the product is fed to the staple tray.

Output bin 3 delivery roller sensor
The controller determines an output bin 3 upper delivery roller failure and notifies the formatter
through the DC controller when it does not detect the output bin 3 upper delivery roller sensor for a
specified period after the paddle motor starts rotating.
