Staple unit moving mechanism

• When the Power Switch is turned ON, or the Front Door is opened and closed, the Staple
Unit is moved to the front side with the forward rotation of the Slide Motor and stopped at
the position where the Slide Home Position Sensor located at the bottom of the Staple
Unit is blocked by the Light Shield Plate.
• The Staple Unit is moved to the rear side with the backward rotation of the Slide Motor
and stopped at its standby position.
• This standby position is determined by the number of pulses input to the Slide Motor
since it is a stepping type motor.
