The staple function can be used to staple output.
This function saves considerable time when preparing materials such as handouts for a meeting. The staple function 
can also be used in combination with 2-sided printing to create materials with a more sophisticated appearance.
Stapling positions and the number of staples can be selected to obtain the following stapling results.

To punch holes in the output, click the [Punch] checkbox so that a checkmark 

 appears. Punch hole positions can be 

set using [Binding Edge].

• To use the staple function, a finisher is required.

• To use the punch function, a punch module must be installed on the finisher.

• The number of holes that can be punched and the spacing between the holes varies depending on the installed punch 

module.

• The maximum number of sheets that can be stapled is 50 sheets (30 sheets for Foolscap, B4, or larger sizes).

• The staple function and offset function cannot be used at the same time.

• When the finisher is disabled in the machine's system settings (administrator), the staple function and punch function 

cannot be used.

• When the staple function or the punch function is disabled in the machine's system settings (administrator), stapling or 

punching is not possible.

The button that is used to open the printer driver properties window (usually [Properties] or [Printing Preferences]) 
may vary depending on the software application.

• For the staple function, select the number of staples 

in the "Staple" menu.

• For the punch function, click the [Punch] checkbox 

so that a checkmark 

 appears.

This section explains convenient functions for specific printing objectives. The procedures for selecting these functions 
assume that the printer driver properties window has been opened from the print window of your application and that 
basic settings such as the paper size have been selected. When the settings are completed, return to the print window 
and begin printing.

The pamphlet function prints on the front and back of 
each sheet of paper so that the sheets can be folded and 
bound to create a pamphlet. This is convenient when 
you wish to compile printed output into a pamphlet.

For details on printer driver settings used for each printing function, view printer driver Help.

Select [Pamphlet Style].
Pamphlet printing can be 
selected from the pull-down 
menu.

This function is used to shift the print image to increase 
the margin at the left, right, or top of the paper. This is 
convenient when you wish to staple or punch the output, 
but the binding position overlaps the text. When a finisher 
is installed, you can use the staple function or the punch 
function with this function.

One page of print data can be enlarged and printed in 
sections on multiple sheets of paper (4 sheets (2 x 2), 9 
sheets (3 x 3) or 16 sheets (4 x 4)). This makes it 
possible to attach the sheets together to create a large 
poster. To enable precise alignment of the edges of the 
sheets during attachment, borderlines can be printed 
and overlapping edges can be created (overlap 
function).

(This function can be used when the PCL6 or PS printer driver is used.)

Select poster settings.
Select the number of sheets of 
paper to be used from the 
pull-down menu. If you wish to print 
borderlines and/or use the overlap 
function, select the corresponding 
checkboxes .
