Stapler/clincher movement control

A. Mechanism
The staplers/clinchers move to the stapling position in accordance with the paper size.
The stapling position is different for every paper size to make the stapling distance half of the paper size.
The staplers /Rt [10] and /Lt [8] are fixed to the belt /Up [9] and the clinchers /Rt [2] and /Lt [4] to the belt /Lw [1].
They are moved in the sub scan direction by the stapler movement motor (M15) [5] via the connecting shaft [6].
To prevent the tooth skipping of the belts /Up and /Lw at the maintenance, the gear-shaped rotating knob [7] is
provided on the connecting shaft [6]. Rotating the knob, you can manually move the staplers /Rt and /Lt and the
clinchers /Rt and /Lt simultaneously.

B. Control
The stapler movement motor (M15) rotates in the forward direction when the main body start signal turns ON
and moves the staplers and the clinchers to the position for the appropriate paper size.
They go back to their home position at the end of the printing operation.
