Multi-part binding
• Rough bindings of multi-part paper cause paper jam.
• The each sheet of multi-part paper should normally be put together by
spot-gluing, paper-stapling, tape stitching. Spot-gluing is recommended
for the better printing quality.
• Spot-gluing must be applied on both sides of paper (Refer to Figure 1-
7.).
• The spot-glued parts must be pressed flat. There must be no creases in
the paper.
• The paper-stapling must be applied from the front of paper and the
paper must be flat (Refer to Figure 1-8.).
• Paper-stapling must be applied for both feeding directions (Refer to
Figure 1-9.).
• The paper-stapling should be flat (Refer to Figure 1-10.).
• Never use metal staples.
• The position of binding must be outside of printable area.
• Multi-part paper should be bound firmly to each other and the binding
must not be too large.
