From bridge unit assembly to punch
The media fed from the bridge unit assembly is fed into the finisher by the media entrance roll assembly located
on the entrance section of the finisher which is driven by the drive motor (entrance/paddle).
The media route inside the finisher is determined by the finisher diverter gate.
The finisher diverter gate is activated by the finisher diverter gate solenoid controlled by the printer.
The media is further fed in the finisher by the two upper media transport roll assemblies, or the buffer roll
assemblies that are driven by the motor (buffer/transport), and passes through the punch unit.
The sensor (finisher media entrance) becomes low upon detecting media. After a certain amount of time has
passed and the level has changed to high, the motor (buffer/transport) that drives the upper media transport roll
assembly or the buffer roll assembly starts reverse rotation.
The media is returned to the punch unit by the upper media transport roll assembly or the buffer roll assembly,
and is stopped with its end gently pressed against the three punch media stopper assemblies.
The three punch media stopper assemblies in the punch unit drop to let media pass through when media is fed
to the exit (while the motor (buffer/transport) is rotating forward), but rise when media is returned (while the
motor (buffer/transport) is rotating reversely) to stop the media.
Thus, punch hole positions in the media feed direction are determined.

From punch to compiler unit assembly
The media is transferred to the compiler unit assembly by the buffer roll assembly (driven by the motor (buffer/
transport)) and by the lower media exit roll assembly (driven by the drive motor (exit)).
When the first media reaches the compiler unit assembly, the media eject clamp motor is activated to lower the
media eject clamp so that the media eject clamp and the media eject shaft assembly can clamp the media.
Thus, the media transferred from the punch unit is held by the media eject shaft assembly and the media eject
clamp (driven by the media eject motor assembly) and is fed to the exit.
When the media trailing edge passes through the sensor (lower media exit), the media eject motor assembly
starts reverse rotation to return the media to the compiler unit assembly.
When the following media reaches the compiler unit assembly, the media eject clamp is raised, and the media
that has passed through the lower media exit roll assembly falls on the compiler unit assembly.
At this time, the three main paddles are rotated by the main paddle shaft assembly to feed the media so that the
media trailing edge butts against the rear wall of the compiler unit assembly.
The sub paddle solenoid of the media eject unit assembly is activated to lower the sub paddle so that the media
can be fed to the compiler unit assembly.

When printing multiple sets, while stapling the first set on the compiler unit assembly or ejecting it to the stacker
media bin, the first media of the second set will not be fed to the compiler unit assembly.
When the first media of the second set reaches the finisher, the buffer diverter solenoid is activated by the
printer command and by the sensor (finisher media entrance) to switch the buffer diverter gate.
Thus, the media route is switched into the buffer roll assembly’s circumferential direction. (This operation is
called the buffer path.)
The first media of the second set is aligned with the second media, and then they are fed together to the
compiler unit assembly.
Even for one sheet of media, the buffer path operation is executed in the same way. The media is stacked
temporarily on the compiler unit assembly, and then ejected in the stacker media bin.
After the buffer path is executed for the first media, if a second media of a different size comes, the first media is
fed to the compiler unit assembly, but the second one is fed to the compiler unit assembly without the buffer
path. At this time, a certain delay time is provided to prevent the second media from colliding with the first one.

From compiler unit assembly to stacker media bin
Stapled media on the compiler unit assembly (stapling mode) or aligned media (non-stapling mode) are held
between the media eject clamp and the media eject shaft assembly.
The media eject shaft assembly is driven by the media eject motor assembly to transfer media to the stacker
media bin.
After media is transferred to the stacker media bin, it is held by the clamp paddle attached to the media eject
shaft assembly.
From punch to upper media bin
The media to be ejected to the upper media bin is switched in the media path by the finisher diverter gate located
behind the punch and fed in the upper media transport roll assembly direction.
The finisher diverter gate is switched by the finisher diverter gate solenoid. While the solenoid is activated, media
is fed in the upper media transport roll assembly direction.
The two upper media transport roll assemblies driven by the motor (buffer/transport) feed media to the upper
media exit roll assembly top at the top of the finisher.
The upper media exit roll assembly top driven by the drive motor (exit) ejects the media to the upper media bin.
The upper media exit roll assembly decelerates after a specified period of time from the following trigger events.

Capacity of compiler unit assembly
Media volume that can be stacked on the compiler unit assembly is limited as shown in the table below.
The number of sheets depends on whether media is stapled or not, as well as on media size.
If the number of sheets of one set to be stapled exceeds the limit, the exceeding sheets are not stacked on the
compiler unit assembly, and are forcibly ejected to the stacker media bin without being stapled.
This forcible ejection is performed to prevent damage to the staple assembly.
When feeding large media in the non-staple mode, there may be a misalignment depending on media
characteristics. For this reason, the default media capacity is set to a smaller value.

Compiler unit assembly operation with multiple media sizes
When two or more media sizes are used and their widths are the same (example: A4L and A3S), all the sheets
are compiled and stapled as a set on the compiler unit assembly, and then ejected to the stacker media bin.
When two or more media sizes with different media width are used, stapling media on the compiler unit
assembly is stopped when a different size is detected. Such different-size sheets of media are forcibly ejected to
the stacker media bin.
Tamping
When media is fed from the punch to the compiler unit assembly, tamping is performed to align the media in the
media width direction on the compiler unit assembly.
Tamping is an operation to align media to the specified position on the compiler unit assembly. The front tamper
or rear tamper is moved to the end of the media by its motor.
Tamping is executed each time when a sheet of media reaches the compiler unit assembly. Additional tamping
is executed after the last sheet is tamped.
There are three types of tamping.
• Front tamping–Tamping by the rear tamper with the front tamper fixed at the home position
• Rear tamping–Tamping by the front tamper with the rear tamper fixed at the home position
• Center tamping–Tamping by the front and rear tampers to align media to the center

5057-XXX
Stapling multiple size media
When sheets with different sizes and the same width (example: A4L and A3S) are present on the compiler unit
assembly, all the sheets are stapled and then ejected to the stacker media bin.
When sheets with different widths are present on the compiler unit assembly, stapling is stopped when a
different width is detected. Such different-width sheets are forcibly ejected to the stacker media bin.
Media limits for stapling
The number of sheets to be stapled is limited to prevent damage to the stapler.
• If the number of sheets of one set to be stapled exceeds the limit of the compiler unit assembly, the
exceeding sheets are not stacked on the compiler unit assembly, and are forcibly ejected to the stacker
media bin without being stapled.
• After the forcible ejection of media, if the number of following sheets of one set to be stapled exceeds the
limit of the compiler unit assembly, the exceeding sheets are also ejected forcibly to the stacker media bin
without being stapled.
• After that, even if the number of following sheets of one set to be stapled falls within the limit, the sheets are
also ejected forcibly to the stacker media bin without being stapled.
The upper limit (and default) of the compiler unit assembly media capacity when stapling is 50 (variable (10 to
100) by the non-volatile memory).
Stapler operation
The stapler stays at the front home position, that is, at the front staple (corner) position when the power is
turned on.
The stapler starts stapling when a set of sheets to be stapled is stacked on the compiler unit assembly.
The stapler does not move during stapling in the front staple mode.
In any mode other than the front staple mode, the stapler moves to the specified position, and then performs
stapling.

tamper drive motor. Tamping operation will be performed a final time after the last sheet is received.
Documents in the compiler tray are assembled towards the front. For center stapling and folding positions, one
set of document is assembled and moved to the center.
The booklet end guide is lifted to where the fold will divide the paper into two equal halves. When the printouts
are stapled, the booklet end guide will be raised so that the stapled position is at the folding position. The
stapling position is slightly lower than the folding position center line.
When the movement from the booklet folding/exit drive motor is transferred to the knife through the engagement
of the sector gear, the knife will thrust forward and then return to the original position after one full rotation. At the
folding position, the knife is thrust forward to fold the paper between booklet folding roll and booklet folding nip
roll.
Paper is folded into two halves by the booklet folding roll driven by the booklet folding/exit drive motor and is
delivered to the booklet media bin by the booklet media exit roll assembly. The booklet media bin belt will move
at a fixed interval for every set of booklets that are created.

Stacker media bin
The stacker media bin goes up and down to an appropriate position according to the volume of media fed from
the compiler unit assembly so as to properly stack media to a full stack.
Operation
The stacker media bin moves to an appropriate position according to the volume of media fed from the compiler
unit assembly. The sensor (stacker bin level 1) and the sensor (stacker bin level 2) detect the height of media in
the stacker media bin, and the sensor (stacker bin level encoder) determines the volume of media in the tray.
When media or the stacker media bin comes between the light emitter and the photo-receiver of the sensor
(stacker bin level 1) and sensor (stacker bin level 2), the emitted light is blocked, and the sensors turn high. The
height of media or the stacker media bin is detected based on the levels of these sensors.
This sensor information is used to control the elevator motor. The motor is activated to move the stacker media
bin while the sensor (stacker bin level) turns from the light blocking state to the light receiving state.

Bin: proper

The sensor (stacker bin no media) is turned On or Off by the actuator attached to the carriage assembly right on
the rear side of the finisher. In case the stacker media bin abnormally goes up above the sensor (stacker bin no
media), the sensor (stacker bin upper limit) is installed above the sensor (stacker bin no media) for protection
against abnormal operation.
If an operator removes media from the stacker media bin during printing, it is detected by the sensor (stacker bin
level 2), and the ejection of media to the stacker media bin is inhibited. Then the elevator motor is activated to
move the stacker media bin to the sensor (stacker bin level 1) sensing area. Thus, the ejection of media to the
stacker media bin is restored.
If an operator removes media from the stacker media bin while printing is stopped, it is detected by the sensor
(stacker bin level 2). After three seconds have passed, the elevator motor is activated to move the stacker media
bin to the sensor (stacker bin level 1) sensing area. Thus, the ejection of media to the stacker media bin is
restored.

The stacker media bin lowers according to the volume of media it contains. If any obstacle under the tray
hinders the tray from lowering, the stacker lower safety warning is detected, and the stacker media bin is
stopped.

Full stack detection
A full stack is detected when media in the stacker media bin becomes full to prevent media jam or falling of
media to the floor. The stacker media bin can stack up to approximately 3000 sheets.
The media volume in the stacker media bin is detected at every 10% (approximately 300 sheets) and notified to
the Controller.
Furthermore, the stacker media bin can stack up to 200 sets (default) of stapled media.
The stacker media bin can continue to stack media until media volume reaches either of the limits above.
In the mix stacking mode, all the sizes are allowed until a media volume of approximately 300 sheets in the
stacker media bin is detected.
The mix stacking mode indicates one of the following cases:
• A larger (any size of media) sheet of media is stacked on a smaller sheet.
For example: A4LEF (297x210) media is stacked on A4SEF (210x297) media.
Note: When B5LEF (257x182) media is stacked on A4LEF (297x210) media, this is not mix stacking.
• A sheet of media of less than 11 inches is stacked in the stacker
media bin with the Staple Mode changed.
• An operator put a sheet (or sheets) when no media is remaining in the stacker media bin.
(The size and condition of media stacked in the tray are not identified.)
• Media was present in the stacker media bin when power was turned on.
(The size and condition of media stacked in the tray are not identified.)
• The finisher entered the Sleep Mode with mix stacking and then has exited the Sleep Mode.
• The post-processing mode has changed.

Functions of stacker media bin sensors/motors
• Sensor (stacker bin level 1)
— A light emitter and photo-receiver paired together to detect the height of media in the stacker media bin
— This sensor is used to control the elevator motor.
— When blocked by media or the tray, this sensor turns high, deciding that the stacker media bin is above
the reference level.
— To the contrary, when receiving light, this sensor turns low, deciding that the stacker media bin is below
the reference level.
— The high to low turning point of the sensor is defined as the reference level.
• Sensor (stacker bin level 2)
— A light emitter and photo-receiver paired together to detect the height of media in the stacker media bin
(same function as sensor (stacker bin level 1))
— This sensor is also used to control the elevator motor.
— When blocked by media or the tray, this sensor turns high, deciding that the stacker media bin is above
the reference level.
— To the contrary, when receiving light, this sensor turns low, deciding that the stacker media bin is below
the reference level.
• Sensor (stacker bin no media)
Rear

1-32 Printer Finisher Service Manual
— A photo-interrupter sensor that detects that the stacker media bin is at the highest position; it also
detects no media.
— When the actuator attached to the carriage assembly right enters the sensing area, the emitted light is
blocked, which turns the sensor to high (+5 V).
• Sensor (stacker bin upper limit)
— A photo-interrupter sensor that detects the stacker media bin’s abnormal elevation above the top position
(sensor (stacker bin no media) position)
— When the actuator attached to the carriage assembly right enters the sensing area, the emitted light is
blocked, which turns the sensor to high (+5 V).
• Sensor (stacker bin level encoder)
— A photo-interrupter sensor that counts the pulse of the Encoder attached to the Shaft-Elevator.
— The media volume in the stacker media bin is detected based on this count.
• Stacker bin lift motor
— A DC motor that elevates or lowers the stacker media bin
— Clockwise rotation elevates the tray, and counterclockwise rotation lowers the tray.
• Media eject motor assembly
— A stepper motor that ejects stapled or non-stapled media to the stacker media bin
— Clockwise rotation ejects media to the stacker media bin, and counterclockwise rotation reverses the
eject roll to feed the media from the punch to the compiler unit assembly.
• Media eject clamp motor
A DC motor that elevates or lowers the media eject clamp when feeding media from the punch to the
compiler unit assembly or from the compiler unit assembly to the stacker media bin
• Sensor (media eject clamp HP)
— A photo-interrupter sensor that detects the set clamp home position
— This sensor functions as a trigger to control On/Off of the set clamp clutch.
• Media eject clutch
When this clutch is activated, it transmits the media eject motor assembly rotating power to the media eject
shaft assembly.
