Return to Overview

When the saddle stitcher unit of the Booklet Finisher-A1 is almost out of staples and the staple cartridge in the saddle stitcher unit must be replaced, a screen prompting you to replace the staple cartridge appears on the touch panel display. Follow the procedure described below to replace the staple cartridge.

Use only staple cartridges intended for use in this machine. See "Optional Products Required for Each Function (imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9075 PRO/C9065 PRO)."

• Take care when handling the optional equipment that is attached to the machine. When an optional unit's cover is opened to replace a staple cartridge, discard the punch waste, discard the trim waste, or clear paper or staple jams, prints may still be output if other optional units are operating normally, and are not involved in the paper or staple jam removal procedure.

• If necessary, remove all of the output paper in the Booklet Tray before replacing the staple cartridge in the saddle stitcher unit.

• This procedure is necessary only if the Booklet Finisher-A1 is attached.

• Since both the front and inner staple cartridges need to be replaced when staples run out in the saddle stitcher unit, we recommend that you order staple cartridges from your local authorized Canon dealer before your stock runs out.

1. Open the front cover of the finisher.

2. Pull out the saddle stitcher unit (F-C5).

3. Pull out the staple case, holding it by its tab.

• When replacing the staple cartridges, replace both the front and back staple cartridges.

7. Close the staple case cover.

8. Return the staple case to its original position in the saddle stitcher unit, making sure to align the arrow on the staple case with the arrow on the saddle stitcher unit, as shown below.

When returning the staple case, always make sure to the staple case is inserted until the arrows are aligned as shown in the diagram.

• Follow steps 3 to 7 to replace the other staple cartridge in the saddle stitcher unit.

9. Gently push the saddle stitcher unit back into the machine.

Always make sure to insert the saddle stitcher far as it can go.
