2.4.3 Stapling Operation
■ Overview
Stapling operation staples the prescribed number of copies with the stapler unit.
The staple position depends on the staple mode and paper size.
Whether the staple unit is at home position or not is detected by the stapler shift home position sensor (PI40).
When the power is turned on, the finisher controller PCB drives the stapler shift motor (M35) to return the stapler
unit to home position. If the stapler unit is already at home position, it waits in that state.
