Saddle stitch function (only saddle stitch finisher) The saddle stitch finisher can automatically place two staples for centreline binding of prints or copies and fold them along the centreline. Hole punching (only if a punch module is installed) When the optional punch module is installed, holes can be punched in printed pages. (When using the saddle stitch finisher, pamphlet style stapling and the punch function cannot be used together.)
