Paper Feed Cycle
The stapler bed assembly receives the paper from the 8-bin Mailbox/
5-bin Mailbox with Stapler Head assembly. The IR Sensor detects
when the paper arrives in the stapler. The Retainer (a shaft holding
two rubber flexible fingers or anti-curl fingers) rotates once to apply
pressure down and backward. This action forces the paper to register
against the rear wall of the stapler bed, as well as reduces paper curl.
The Registration Pusher (located in the right side of the Top
Assembly) registers the paper against the left wall of the stapler bed.
This cycle is repeated until the amount of sheets to be stapled is
reached (with a maximum of 20).
