*1 If you are printing using the command instead of the printer driver, be sure to specify the appropriate setting for rotating the document by 180 degrees with the PJL command.

If you want to use the staple function in combination with duplex printing, you must specify a staple position that is compatible with the binding pattern and duplex position you have specified.
If you want to use the staple function in combination with letterhead printing, you must specify a staple position that is compatible with the binding pattern and paper orientation you have specified.
When center staple is set, the fore edge of prints can be cut using the optional trimmer. For details about cutting the fore edges of prints, see the printer driver Help.
Empty the trimmer tray if prints are ejected with waste paper stuck to them. For details, see "Removing Waste Paper", Troubleshooting.
