Load staples
Load staples if the MFP control-panel display prompts you with a Stapler Low On Staples or Order
staple cartridge message (the stapler has fewer than 20 usable staples left), or when it prompts you
with a Replace Stapler Cartridge or STAPLER OUT OF STAPLES message (the stapler is empty, or
the remaining staples cannot be used).
The stapler accepts print jobs if it is out of staples, but it does not staple the pages. The printer driver
can be configured to disable the staple option when the stapler cartridge is empty.
