In staple mode, each sheet of copy paper is vertically and horizontally aligned
when it arrives in the jogger unit.
Vertical Paper Alignment
After the trailing edge of the copy passes the stapler tray entrance sensor [A], the
positioning roller solenoid [B] is energized for 280 ms to push the positioning roller
[C] into contact with the paper. The positioning roller and alignment brush roller [D]
rotate to push the paper back and align the trailing edge of the paper against the
stack stopper [E].
Horizontal Paper Alignment
When the print key is pressed, the jogger motor [F] turns on and the jogger fences
[G] move to the waiting position, which is 7 mm wider on both sides than the
selected paper.
When the trailing edge of the paper passes the staple unit entrance sensor, the
jogger motor turns on for approximately 70 ms to move the jogger fences 5 mm
towards the paper. After a short time, the jogger motor turns on again
approximately for 60 ms for the horizontal paper alignment then goes back to the
waiting position.
