Stapling documents
The optional stapler/stacker can staple jobs of up to 15 sheets of paper (20-lb paper). The
stapler can staple letter-, A4-, or legal-size paper.
Paper weight can range from 60 to 120 g/m
2
(16 to 32 lb). Heavier paper might have a
stapling limit of fewer than 15 sheets.
If the job you want stapled consists of only one sheet, or if it consists of more than 15 sheets,
the printer will print the job to the bin, but the printer will not staple the job.
The stapler supports paper only. Do not try to staple other types of print media, such as
transparencies or labels.
When you are ready to have the printer staple a document, select stapling in the software. You
can usually select the stapler in your program or printer driver, although some options might be
available only in the printer driver. Where and how you make selections depends on your
program or printer driver.
If you cannot select the stapler in the program or printer driver, select the stapler at the printer
control panel. (You might need to configure the printer driver to recognize the optional stapler/
stacker. You need to set this setting only once. See the printer driver online Help for details.)
The stapler will accept print jobs if it is out of staples, but the pages will not be stapled. The print
driver can be configured to disable the staple option if staples are out.
