The diverter guides the paper to the outer or inner staging path. It is controlled by the motor (staging diverter).
A sensor detects the position of the diverter.

Staging is done to maximize the amount of finishing jobs at a given time. As a job is being processed at the
compiler tray, the next job is simultaneously preloaded at the staging path. As a result, multiple staple jobs are
done more efficiently.
