Stapling capabilities When you attach an optional finisher to your printer, you can staple print jobs of up to 50 pages in length by either selecting Staple Job from your printer driver or by setting the Staple Job menu item in the Finishing Menu to On. Note: You can staple up to 50 sheets when printing on 20 Ib paper. If you are printing on heavier paper (for example, 24 Ib), the number of pages you can staple may be less than 50. If the printer determines that the number of pages in the print job is too large to staple, it places the document in the output bin unstapled. Do not try stapling card stock, transparencies, or labels. Before printing your job, the printer makes sure bin 2 is not full. It then prints your job, staples the pages, and deposits the job in bin 2. If bin 2 is full, a message appears on the operator panel display prompting you to remove any print jobs from the bin before printing. Priming the stapler If you have just loaded a new staple cartridge in the stapler, or have just cleared a staple jam, you may need to prime the stapler before you can staple your print job. See "Prime Stapler" on page 54 or refer to the User's Reference for more information about priming the stapler. Output options 120
