When the saddle stitcher unit of the Booklet Finisher-C1 is almost out of staples and the staple cartridge 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 with this machine.

• 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-C1 is attached.

• We recommend that you order staple cartridges from your local authorized Canon dealer before your stock runs out.

• Remove the black part on the end before inserting the staple cartridge.

1. Open the front cover of the finisher.

2. Grip the saddle stitcher unit by its handle, and pull it out of the finisher until it stops.

3. Pull the stapler unit of the saddle stitcher unit towards you, and then push it up.

4. Pull out the empty staple cartridge, holding it by its left and right sides.

5. Insert the new staple cartridge.

Push the staple cartridge in until it clicks into place.

• Only one staple cartridge can be inserted at a time.

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

6. Pull the stapler unit of the saddle stitcher unit towards you, and then push it down into its original position.

7. Gently push the saddle stitcher unit back into its original position.

8. Close the front cover of the finisher.

• When closing the front cover of the finisher, be careful not to get your fingers caught, as this may result in personal injury.

• When you have replaced the staple cartridge, be sure to manually reposition the staples in the saddle stitcher unit. (See "Saddle Stitch Staple Repositioning.")
