The output lays flat for easy packing and you are also able to print on the back (spine) of the book for easy retrieval in bookshelves. The S pine Pro runs up to 1800 sets / hour depending on which mode that is selected.

Mode selection guide lines
• Mode 1 for 6–10 sheets (80 gsm or 20 lb bond stock)

• Mode 3 for 16 or more (80 gsm or 20 lb bond stock)
