Finishers

This topic describes the parts of the following finishers:

  • Stacker/stapler

  • Folder

  • Long sheet catch tray

  • Bridge and finisher adapter for DFD (Document Finishing Device)

Stacker/stapler

There are two standard stacker/stapler configurations: the stacker/stapler with booklet maker (Booklet Finisher-AC or Booklet Finisher-AG ) and without a booklet maker (Staple Finisher-AC or Staple Finisher-AG ). The booklet maker folds and staples booklets. Both finisher configurations can have the optional punch unit to punch two, three or four holes in the printed output.

The dashboard of the control panel displays the status of the staple cartridges. When the colour of the staple icon is orange or red, the staple cartridge needs replacement.

Bridge and finisher adapter for DFD (Document Finishing Device)

The [Finisher adapter] and the Bridge are two interface modules that improve the connectivity to DFD finishers. With these two interface modules there is no need to install a stacker behind the imagePRESS V900 series only to connect DFD finishers.

The DFD (Document Finishing Device) is a third-party external finisher such as a booklet maker or a perforator.

You can connect the [Finisher adapter] directly after the imagePRESS V900 series or directly after some specific finishers (not all finishers), no Bridge is needed.

You can also connect the [Finisher adapter] to the stacker/stapler. A Bridge is needed to connect the [Finisher adapter] to the stacker/stapler. The Bridge replaces the upper tray of the stacker/stapler. The other tray and all (optional) functionality (stacking, stapling, punching, and saddle stitching) remain available.
