Paper specifications for stapling
The following chart shows the stapling details for paper size, 
orientation, destination, and staple position. Numbers have been

TIP: Paper that is larger than A3/11 x 17 inch cannot be stapled 
or offset.
NOTE: Stapled sets of large paper (A3, 11 x 17in. and greater) 
may stack slightly skewed. The stapled sets will be of high quality.
