NOTE: The current machine software does not distinguish
between the 30 Sheet Stapler Cartridge and the 100 Sheet Stapler Cartridge.
If the 30 Sheet Stapler Cartridge is loaded in the machine, and a job with
more than 30 sheets is submitted for stapling, a mis-staple or stapler jam
will probably occur. If the 30 Sheet Stapler Cartridge is used, it is the
responsibility of the operator to ensure that jobs exceeding 30 sheets are
not submitted for stapling.
