1. Shifting the Staple Unit
The Stapler Unit is moved by the Stapler Shift Motor (M4). Its home position is detected by the Stapler
Shift Home Position Sensor (PI7). When the start signal arrives from the Copier, the Stapler moves to
the center of its movement range. This movement occurs regardless of the selected mode of delivery,
as no specific mode is recognized at this point in time.
When the command for stapling arrives from the Copier after the first sheet has reached the Copier
Pre-registration Sensor, the Stapler moves to the staple wait position to suit the appropriate stapling
position and paper size.
See Fig. 2-044 and later for an idea of the wait position according to the stapling mode.
a. Front Diagonal Stapling
The position is the same as the stapling position.
Fig. 2-044
b. Rear 1-point Stapling
The Stapler is kept in wait at the center position. The Stapler is moved to and from the stapling
position for each stapling operation.
