Stapling
The multifunction finisher staples the specified number of sheets of paper. The staple position
depends on the staple mode and paper size.
Figure 22.
Staple positions
When the multifunction finisher is turned on, the finisher controller PCB drives the slide motor to
return the stapler to the home position. The stapler moves toward the front of the stapler frame,
and stops at the slide home-position sensor on the slide PCB. The slide motor is driven a
specified number of pulses, and the stapler moves to rear standby position and enters the
standby state when it reaches the back of the multifunction finisher.
