Sharp AR-M237 IMAGERs User manual

Three Position Stapling Adds Flexibility
With three-position stapling you have more
choices to help give your finished document
a professional appearance. With available
staple positions for the upper left, lower left,
or center left sides of your document, you
can format your output in either portrait or
landscape orientation. And, with the built-in
offset function, multiple sets can be easily
sorted—saving time.

advanced document finishing. With flexible, three-position stapling for up to 50 sheets
of paper, the AR-F14 Saddle-Stitch Finisher can help you save valuable time. Easily
create pamphlets that are neatly stapled along the crease of the document—for truly
professional results. And with the optional Hole-Punch Module, the AR-F14
