The bindexer

NOTE: Production publisher configuration only

The bindexer is a three-bin sorter that collates the pages of each print set. As the pages of the print set are fed to the bindexer, the bindexer moves up and down to collate them.

The stitcher

NOTE: Production publisher configuration only

When the job requires stitched output, the stitcher cuts and inserts the wire stitches into each print set. The stitch length is related to such factors as the number of pages in the print set and the print stock weight. A single stitch can be placed in the portrait or landscape print position. Dual stitching is available for landscape and portrait prints. Stitch placement can be changed through the DocuSP software.

NOTE: For more information about setting stitch placement, refer to the on-line help system.
