Staple operation
The stapling operation staples the prescribed number of copies with the stapler unit. The staple
position depends on the staple mode and paper size. The stapler-shift home-position sensor (PI110)
detects whether the stapler unit is at the home position. The stapler unit is equipped with a stapler-
alignment interference sensor (PI116). The staple motor (M41) operation is prohibited when the
stapler-alignment interference sensor (PI46) is on. This prevents stapling at the stopper and
damaging the stopper when the stapler-shift motor (M105) is incorrectly adjusted. When the power is
turned on, the stacker controller PCA drives the stapler-shift motor (M105) to return the stapler unit to
home position. If the stapler unit is already at home position, it waits in that state.
