Tamping and Offsetting: The operation of offsetting the compiled sets is performed by the front
and rear tampers. Offsetting is performed immediately before ejection. If stapling is selected,
offsetting is performed after stapling. When a stapling operation is selected, the rear tamper
operates before stapling, to ensure that each set is correctly positioned for stapling at its out-
board end. After stapling the sets are alternately either left at the outboard end, or offset
towards the inboard end by the front tamper. The components associated with the tamping and
offset functions are:
