Hardware and hardware naming in User Interfaces
To improve the readability of texts in User Interfaces of operator panels and software,
the finishers are generally referred to by their function. The table below shows the naming
conventions for finishers (commercial product names and the way these are referred to
in User Interfaces).
Note:
In some cases, there is only 1 name for several modules. The reason is that a configuration
can only contain 1 of the available types of modules.

Offset stacking mode
The printed output is shifted alternately to the front and back of the tray, in a vertical
(portrait) orientation, or a horizontal (landscape) orientation, depending on the orientation
of your originals. For example, if you place A4R or LetterR originals, the paper is output
and shifted in the horizontal direction. If you place A4 or Letter originals, the paper is
output and shifted in the vertical direction.
When you use the Offset stacking mode while Sort by set or Sort by page is selected, then
each set of prints is shifted the following amount before it is delivered to the output tray:
•
No staple: each set is shifted 30 mm (1 1/4").
•
Corner staple: each set is shifted 20 mm (3/4").
•
Double staple: no shift between sets.

The Settings Editor on the PRISMAsync controller contains a 'High-volume mode enabled' setting. When this setting is set to 'Yes' the upper tray and the lower tray of the
stacker/stapler will be linked to increase the output capacity for non-stapled jobs. The
total output capacity will become 5,000 sheets for 80g/m² / 20 lb bond media (3,000
sheets in the upper tray and 2,000 sheets in the lower tray).
Note:
The mode is not active when trimmer D1 is present.

You can still select the lower tray or upper tray as desired output location but the system
ignores the choice.

Introduction
The stacker/stapler is the output location that can staple printed documents before these
are delivered into an output tray. Before each of the following output trays, 2 staplers are
present:
•
The upper tray.
•
The lower tray.
•
The booklet tray (optional).
The booklet tray is only available when your stacker/stapler is equipped with the optional saddle stitch unit.
When all the staple cartridges are sufficiently filled, the staple icon in the dashboard is
blue. When the staple icon in the dashboard is orange or red, one of the staple cartridges
is empty or almost empty. You must refill the staple cartridge as soon as possible.
To find out which staple cartridge is empty or almost empty, you must go to the 'Printer'
section of the 'System' view. The icon for the staple cartridge that must be refilled is orange
or red.
Note:
Even when the staple icon is blue, you can still go to the 'System' view to check the
number of staples that has been used since the last refill.
