AR-FN6 MACHINE OPERATION-1

When using the stapling function, select "Properties" on the printer driver setting screen, open the "Main" tab shown in the right illustration, and then

select "Left", "Right" or "Top " at "Binding Edge" and "1 Staple" or  "2 Staples" in the "Staple" drop down.

NOTES:

•The settings screens above will appear only if the devices have been set properly in the printer driver.

•The combination of paper selection and other functions may not be compatible. For instance, if heavy paper, envelopes, label stock, etc. are selected,

it will not be possible to select duplex, offset tray, saddle stitch, etc.

The illustration below shows the screen for a PCL printer driver in the Windows 98 environment.

If you touch the [OUTPUT] key on the copy mode basic screen, a screen for selecting the sort/group/staple sort functions and selecting an exit tray will
appear.

If this function is selected, all copies of the same original will be grouped.
2 : [STAPLE SORT] key

If this function is selected, sorted copies will be stapled and delivered to

the offset tray. (not offset stacked)
3 : [SORT] key

If this function is selected, each set of copies will be sequentially

delivered.
4 : Icon display

The icon of the selected function (sort, staple sort or group) is displayed.

5 : [OFFSET] key
If this function is selected (checked), the offset function will be enabled. If

the check mark is cleared, the offset function will be disabled. (If the

staple sort function is selected, the check mark of the offset function will
be automatically cleared.)

If the offset tray is selected, printed sheets will be delivered to the offset
tray. (If the staple sort function is selected, the offset tray will be

automatically selected.)

7 : [TOP TRAY] key
If the top tray is selected, printed sheets will be delivered to the top tray.

Press to close this screen and to return to the basic screen.

*

If a function is selected, the corresponding key will be highlighted.

AR-FN6 MACHINE OPERATION-2

When stapling is performed, the orientation of image data or original is related to the stapling position, binding position and orientation of paper

complicatedly. The table below shows the relation.

NOTES:
•When using the stapling function, select the offset tray as an exit tray. If another tray is selected, the stapling function cannot be used.

•Select only one paper size. If different sizes are included, stapling cannot be performed.

*

The following types of paper cannot be stapled.

Pre-punched paper, transparency film, heavy paper, label, envelope, postcard

AR-FN6 ADJUSTMENTS-1

1) Staple 5 sheets of A4 or LT paper and check the paper shift (A)

shown in the figure below.

2) If the shift (A) is less than 1mm, there is no need to adjust.

3) If the shift (A) is 1mm or greater, adjust as shown in the table below.

1) In the DIAG MODE, select [FINISHER JOGGER ADJ.].

2) Press [OK] key, and the following display will be shown.

Use [

] key and [

] key to change the adjustments value.

(Adjustment range: 40 - 60)

3) Change the adjustment value and press OK key, and the stopper will

be turned on and the finisher joggers F/R will move to and stop at the

positions shown in the table below. 

4) When the joggers F/R stop, open the door and load A$/LT paper in

the alignment tray, and check the jogger width visually. 

5) When the jogger width is too wide or too narrow, use [

] key and

[

] key again to change the adjustments value. Press [OK] key to

shift the jogger to the A4/LT alignment position, and check visually. 

The table below shows relationship between the adjustment value and

the jogger width.

6) After completion of the adjustment, remove the paper from the

alignment tray and terminate the DIAG MODE.

1) When the sub code of the simulation is entered, the following display

is shown.

2) Enter the adjustment value with [0] - [9] keys and press START key,

and the menu below will be displayed. (Adjustment range: 40 - 60)

When the stopper is turned on, and finisher joggers F/R move to and
stop at the positions shown in the table below.

3) When the joggers F/R stop, open the door and load A4/LT paper in

the alignment tray, and check the jogger width visually. 

4) When the jogger width is too wide or too narrow, use [0] - [9] key

again to change the adjustments value. Press [START] key to shift

the jogger to the A4/LT alignment position, and check visually. 

The table below shows relationship between the adjustment value and

the jogger width.

5) After completion of the adjustment, remove the paper from the

alignment tray and terminate the simulation.
