Stapling Of First Sheet - Canon SADDLE FINISHER K3 Service Manual

CHAPTER 2 OPERATION OVERVIEW

5.1.2 Stapling of first sheet

As the trailing edge of the first sheet of paper passes the sort delivery roller, after it has
been fed forward a specified distance, the stack delivery roller begins to rotate in reverse,
moving forward a little more. Then, the swing guide rises and the stack delivery roller
stops. The rising action of the swing guide is detected by the swing guide open sensor
(PI16).
The sort delivery roller rotates the knurled belt, and feeds the paper into the processing
tray. The swing guide remains elevated until the last sheet of paper has been stacked. The
stack delivery sensor (PI18) detects the paper on the processing tray.
When the paper hits the processing tray stopper, the jogging plate moves to keep the
edges of the paper flush. The front or rear jogging plate will be used, depending on which
side the existing stack was aligned on.
