Manual Stapling

1

Place the desired bundle of paper into the slit in the staple finisher or booklet finisher. Insert the corner of the paper bundle where you want it stapled straight into the slit, with the front side of the paper facing down. When the paper bundle is sensed, the staple button starts to blink and automatic stapling is performed. You can set the time in seconds to elapse before stapling is executed. You can perform stapling without waiting for the specified stapling start time to come. While holding the paper bundle with one of your hands, use the other hand to press the staple button.

2

Pull out the paper bundle. Wait for the staple button to turn off, and then pull out the paper bundle.

You cannot perform manual stapling while outputting of printed paper continues.
