This inserter is an optional unit for the AR-620 series of digital complex
machines. With the inserter installed, blank sheets or printed sheets
can be inserted as covers (made of cardboard) or tabbed sheets with-
out being subject to the printing process (and without passing through
a fixing unit). When the inserter is combined with a finisher (optional)
and a punch unit (optional), printed sheets can proceed to the hole
punching or stapling process without being subject to the copying pro-
cess (or without passing through the main unit).
