Use the stapler
The optional stapler/stacker can staple jobs of up to 30 sheets of 75g/m 2 (20lb) paper. The stapler can
staple these sizes: A4, Letter, Legal, Executive (JIS), and 8.5 x 13. It can stack up to 500 sheets of
paper.
● Paper weight can range from 60 to 120g/m 2 (16 to 32lb). Heavier paper might have a stapling limit
of fewer than 30 sheets.
● If the job consists of only one sheet, or if it consists of more than 30 sheets, the MFP delivers the
job to the bin, but the MFP does not staple the job.
● The stapler supports paper only. Do not try to staple other types of print media, such as envelopes,
transparencies, or labels.
When you want the MFP staple a document, select stapling in the software. You can usually select the
stapler in your program or printer driver, although some options might be available only in the printer
driver. Where and how you make selections depends on your program or printer driver.
If you cannot select the stapler in the program or printer driver, select the stapler at the MFP control
panel.
The stapler accepts print jobs if it is out of staples, but it does not staple the pages. The printer driver
can be configured to disable the staple option if the staple cartridge is empty.
Configure the printer driver to recognize the optional stapler
You need to configure the printer driver to recognize the optional stapler/stacker. You need to configure
this setting only once. The procedure to configure the driver to recognize the accessory depends on the
operating system that you are using. For instructions, see
Supported printer drivers on page 11 . Look
for the column with the heading "To change the configuration settings," and follow the procedure for the
operating system that you are using. Select the HP 500-Sheet Stapler/Stacker as an optional paper
destination or accessory.
