AR-F13 MACHINE OPERATION 7-1

Collated sets of printouts are stapled and delivered to the offset tray (upper tray). Alternatively, printed paper is stapled at the center and delivered to

the saddle stitch tray (lower tray). The relation among stapling positions, orientation, paper size for stapling, and stapling capacity is shown below.

Printed paper is stapled at two positions at the center and is folded in two

with the center down before delivery.

If the saddle stitch finisher is equipped with a punch module, printed

paper can be punched (two holes) and delivered to the offset tray. The

saddle stitch function and the punch function cannot be used together.
