Basic Operation (Saddle Stitcher Unit)

■ Receiving Sheets

The stitcher unit receives sheets from the finisher unit and outputs them inside the vertical
path in vertical orientation.
The vertical path, while sheets are being output, is configured by two paper deflecting plates.
The position of the sheets being output is set by the paper positioning plate so that the center
of the stack matches the stapling/folding position.
Sheets coming later are output closer to the delivery slot, and the volume of paper that may
be output is as follows:
15 sheets (maximum of 14 sheets of 80g/m2 + 1 sheet of 250g/m2)
Direction of

■ Aligning the Sheets

The alignment plates operate to put the sheets in order each time a sheet of paper is output
to the vertical path assembly.
The alignment plates are mounted at the edge of the vertical path assembly.
The alignment plates also operate after stapling to prepare the stack for delivery.
