coming from its host machine on the sheets arriving from the host
machine for delivery: simple stacking, job offset, and stapling or folding
(in two).
If a punch unit (option) is installed, the sheets are punched and delivered
to the delivery tray.

b.Job Offset
The machine pulls the sheet once to the processing tray. It then moves
the sheet to the front or the rear using the aligning plate. When it has
deposited a specific number of sheets, it delivers them in the form of a
stack. When the number of sheets stacked on the processing
tray reaches a specified value, the sheets are delivered in a form of a
stack. Even if the specified value is not reached, stacked sheets are
temporarily delivered when 10 sheets of large-size paper (300 mm or
longer) or 30 sheets of small-size paper (299 mm or shorter) have been
stacked. (5- and STMT-sizes: 10 sheets)
