Punching precautions

Follow these precautions when using the punch function.

To use this function, the optional finisher or optional booklet finisher must be attached to the printer.
The punch function is not available on the 135 ppm model with the optional finisher attached.

Punch printing will be canceled under the following conditions:

When duplex print is selected, adjust the punch position to the binding direction.
Be sure to set the punch position as same as the staple position when using it with the staple function.
Depending on the application, print settings may not be enabled and printed output may not be as expected.
When setting punch in the printer driver settings, make sure that a collate option is not selected in the print settings of the application. If a collate option is selected in the application, printing will not be as intended.
When printing restarts after removing jammed paper, the printing position may be different, depending on the location of the jam.
- If the paper jam occurred in the optional finisher or optional booklet finisher, printing will restart from the top page of the data currently being printed, or from the page where the paper jam occurred.
- If the paper jam occurred in the printer, printing will restart from the page where the paper jam occurred.
- Even if the paper jam occurred in the printer, the error will not be cleared unless the cover of the optional finisher or optional booklet finisher is opened and closed.
For details about specifications for optional finishers, see "Appendix", About This Machine.
