3.2 Stapling Operation
When stacking and alignment of paper on the processing tray are complete, the finisher
controller PCB drives the paddle motor (M2) in the reverse direction and lowers the swing
guide. When the swing guide descends, the paper stack is sandwiched between the upper
and lower stack delivery rollers.
The finisher controller PCB moves the stapler for stapling according to the specified sta-
pling position (when rear 1-point stapling is specified, the stapler does not move but it
staples at the standby position). As the stapler moves forward, the processing tray stopper is
folded forward.
