Stapling Precautions

Limitation

❒Stapling can be done only with the optional finisher installed.

❒Stapling cannot be done when paper is fed from the bypass tray.

❒You cannot interrupt the current job with a job for another function requiring stapling or collating.

❒When printing on letterhead, stapling may not be at the specified position.

❒When the optional booklet finisher is installed, and PostScript 3 is used, you cannot specify [2 at Center].

 

Note

 

❒ When the finisher is installed, and when an output tray that cannot output us-

ing the staple function has been selected, the paper will be output according

to System Settings.

❒If you cannot make staple settings even with the finisher installed, options may not be set correctly in the printer driver. Correct option settings in the printer driver. For details, see the printer driver Help.

❒When duplex printing is selected, adjust staple positions to the binding orien- tation.

❒When the finisher is being used for another function's job (for example, a copy job), printing will start after that job ends.

❒When setting Staple in the printer driver settings, make sure that a collate op- tion is not selected in the print settings of the application. If a collate option is selected in the application, printing will not be as intended.

❒Be sure to set paper size and orientation in the printer driver when stapling.

•Depending on the software you are using, print settings may not be saved and the printed result may not be as expected.

❒When printing restarts after removing jammed paper, the printing position may be different, depending on the location of the jam.

•If the paper jam occurred in the optional finisher, printing will restart from the top page of the data currently being printed, or from the page where the paper jam occurred.

•If the paper jam occurred in the machine, printing will restart from the page where the paper jam occurred.

❒Even if the paper jam occurred in the machine, the error will not be cleared unless the cover of the finisher is opened and closed.
