Output/Finishing Features Summary - Xerox PHASER 8560 Brochure

Paper Handling
PAPER OUTPUT AND FINISHING
Office workgroup devices' paper-output handling options
range from duplex printing to saddle-stitch booklet making.
Many devices offer a choice of finisher/staplers, which
provide a low-cost, minimum footprint solution, or a high-
capacity, fully featured solution such as multi-position
stapling, saddle-stitch booklet maker and/or document
hole puncher.
BERTL evaluates these functions looking at how the same
job outputs at different speeds when different finishing
options are specified. The impact of the finishing selection
is determined by timing jobs that are sent to a device with
various finishing settings.
Stapling
Lower-cost finisher/stapler units often have a 15- to 30-
sheet maximum stapling capability and are often limited to
corner stapling. Floor-standing, higher-cost finishers
typically provide 50-sheet capability and provide both
corner and double stapling.
Saddle-stitch booklet making allows users to create
folded, center-stapled booklets. Some saddle-stitch
finishers only handle 10 sheets (for producing 40-page
booklets), with others handling up to 15 sheets (for
producing 60-page booklets).
Mail Bin Units and Offset Output
Many workgroup devices provide offset stacking (each set
is offset from the next) to make it easier to separate jobs.
Some also provide physical mail bin units that allow each
user to send jobs to their own tray. However, most mail-
bin units do not accept finished (such as stapled) jobs. A
multi-tray finisher can also offer some form of job
separation typically used to separate different types of
jobs (fax, print, copy) for easier identification.
Post-Process Insertion (PPI)
A post-process insertion unit can be used to automatically
insert pages into completed print or copy jobs. These
inserts can include chapter covers, color pages and
specialty material, such as heat-sensitive materials that
may damaged if run through the device. The advantage
of course is that no human intervention is required to
manually insert pages into completed jobs.
