Overview
Figure 1: Xerox DocuColor 12 with a Finisher/Mailbox
The In-line Stapler Finisher is an optional accessory for the Xerox DocuColor 12 and
Document Centre ColorSeries 50 copier/printers. It attaches to the right side of the copier/
printer, as shown in Figure 1. The In-line Stapler Finisher will be referred to as the Finisher
in the remainder of this guide.
The Finisher provides stapling capability for print jobs. It can staple from 2 to 50 sheets of
a single paper size or selected mixed paper sizes. It offers both single and dual stapling
choices. Stapling options are selected from the printer properties window of the
application used to print the job. All stapled sets are delivered to the Finisher Output Tray.
The Finisher Output Tray offsets the output for easy retrieval.
In addition to the Finisher Output Tray, the Finisher has 10 top bins and a Center Output
Tray. The accessibility of the bins and trays depends on how the Finisher has been
configured, the mode of operation, and the options selected for the job.
At installation, the Finisher is configured as either a Finisher/Mailbox or a Finisher/Sorter.
This configuration determines how the 10 top bins function. The stapling option is
available with either configuration. You must contact your Xerox Service Representative to
switch between the Finisher/Mailbox and Finisher/Sorter configurations.
IN-LINE STAPLER FINISHER USER GUIDE 3
Finisher/Mailbox configuration
When the Finisher is configured as a Finisher/Mailbox, the top 10 bins are designated as
mailbox bins for print jobs. Unstapled print jobs can be directed to any one of these bins or
to either of the output trays. Stapled print jobs must be sent to the Finisher Output Tray.
All copy jobs from the Finisher/Mailbox configuration are directed to the Center Output
Tray. The mailbox bins and the Finisher Output Tray are not available for copy jobs.
Finisher/Sorter configuration
When the Finisher is configured as a Finisher/Sorter, the top 10 bins are designated as
sorter bins for copy jobs. These bins can be used for both collated and uncollated copy
jobs. Uncollated copy jobs can also be directed to the Center Output Tray.
Unstapled print jobs can be sent to the Center Output Tray. The Finisher Output Tray can
accept both stapled and unstapled print jobs. The sorter bins are not available for print
jobs.

Resolving stapling conflicts
If a staple option is not compatible with the print settings you have selected in the printer
driver, a caution symbol will appear next to the staple option. If you select an item with a
caution symbol next to it, a dialog box containing details about the conflict will open. You
can either go back to the print settings and make the appropriate changes or you can
ignore the conflict. If you ignore the conflict, your job may print without staples.
NOTE: For Mac OS, staple options that are not compatible with your print settings are
dimmed. No conflict resolution dialog box is available. To determine the conflict, you will
need to review your print settings.
The majority of staple conflicts can be resolved by changing the current paper or duplex
setting in your printer driver. Below are some helpful hints for resolving stapling conflicts.
HELPFUL HINTS:
• If you are printing a portrait document (as determined in the page setup dialog box of the application
you are using), you must choose a portrait stapling option.
• If you are printing a landscape document (as determined in the page setup dialog box of the
application you are using), you must choose a landscape stapling option.
• The paper selection shown in the printer driver must be the same as the paper selection of the first
page of your document.
NOTE: Some applications have a page setup command that automatically changes
the paper selection in the printer driver, while other applications do not. When the
application does not change the paper selection, you must change it manually in the
printer driver.
• If a paper can be fed both long edge and short edge, the printer driver will contain two separate paper
selections. The selection for the long edge feed will indicate just the paper size (e.g., Letter). The
selection for the short feed will be followed by SEF (e.g., Letter SEF).
• For dual stapling, ensure that the staple edge and paper feed edge are the same. For example, if you
are stapling on the long edge, the paper must be fed long edge. If you are stapling on the short edge,
the paper must be fed short edge.
• For dual stapling with duplex, the staple edge and duplex edge must be the same (i.e., long edge/
long edge; short edge/short edge). If the printer driver shows a conflict between the staple option and
the duplex option, select the other duplex option. For example, to resolve a conflict between 2
Staples Landscape, Short Edge and duplex long edge, choose duplex short edge.
10 IN-LINE STAPLER FINI SHER USER GUIDE
Stapling mixed size documents
Documents containing different page sizes can be stapled if:
• all of the sizes in the document are supported by the Finisher
• the feed edge (front to rear) of each paper is the same length.
The Finisher accepts the following mixed media sizes:
A4 LEF with A3 SEF B5 LEF with B4 SEF
8.5 x 11 LEF with 11 x 17 SEF 8.5 x 11 SEF with 8.5 x 13 SEF and 8.5 x 14 SEF
If a print job includes incompatible paper sizes, it will be delivered unstapled to the Center
Output Tray.
Rotate Page
The Rotate Page option allows you to rotate an image 180 degrees. This option is located
in the same drop-down list box as the Staple option. The following are some examples of
when you might use this option:
• The application you are using may be rotating the image. Use Rotate Page to reverse the rotation.
• Your stapling job requires an unconventional staple placement.
The table below shows the output for the staple options with Rotate Page for 8.5 x 11 or
A4 paper.
