• Rear Staple (Straight) [rear Straight]
This type of stapling is applied for media with a width of less than 216 mm.
The Stapler staples a set of media in parallel with the media edge after the front
tamper aligns the media to the rear side.
• Dual Staple [Dual]
The Stapler staples a set of media at fixed positions (front/rear sides) in parallel
with the media edge, after the front tamper aligns the media to the specified
position for each media size.
Media sizes that allow stapling
Media size that allows stapling depends on stapling positions.
The following table shows media sizes and the applicability of stapling for each staple position.
Stapling one sheet
Upon receiving the stapling command from the printer with one sheet remaining on the compiler unit assembly,
the finisher ejects the media to the stacker media bin without stapling it.
Stapling multiple size media
When sheets with different sizes and same width (example: A4L and A3S) are present on the compiler unit
assembly, all the sheets are stapled and then ejected to the stacker media bin.
