When printing multiple sets, while stapling the first set on the compiler unit assembly or ejecting it to the stacker

media bin, the first media of the second set will not be fed to the compiler unit assembly.

When the first media of the second set reaches the finisher, the buffer diverter solenoid is activated by the

printer command and by the sensor (finisher media entrance) to switch the buffer diverter gate.

Thus, the media route is switched into the buffer roll assembly's circumferential direction. (This operation is

called the buffer path.)

The first media of the second set is aligned with the second media, and then they are fed together to the

compiler unit assembly.

Even for one sheet of media, the buffer path operation is executed in the same way. The media is stacked

temporarily on the compiler unit assembly, and then ejected in the stacker media bin.

After the buffer path is executed for the first media, if a second media of a different size comes, the first media is

fed to the compiler unit assembly, but the second one is fed to the compiler unit assembly without the buffer

path. At this time, a certain delay time is provided to prevent the second media from colliding with the first one.

From compiler unit assembly to stacker media bin

Stapled media on the compiler unit assembly (stapling mode) or aligned media (non-stapling mode) are held

between the media eject clamp and the media eject shaft assembly.
