If this option is not specified, the printer’s default value will be used.

Example: The command to staple in the upper left corner of a long edge feed portrait page is “lp 

-o staple=1 filename”.

The value for the stapling position depends on the paper size, the paper feed direction, and the 

print direction. This function is not available for all paper sizes and the users should refer to the 

copier manual for a list of compatible paper sizes. In particular, A5, A6 and statement paper 

sizes will not work with this function.

Output Bin

The output bin can be specified using the following options.

If the finisher option is not installed on the equipment, the default output tray will be used (inner).  

If the finisher option is installed on the equipment, the default output tray will be used (bin2).
