5.1.3 Trailing edge of stapled sheets close to the paper exit
Cause:
If the stapled sheets are curled strongly or become limp after delivery, the trailing
edge of the sheets may be too close to the paper exit when the paper is stacked.
If this happens, stapled sheets, when delivered, may push the previously delivered
sheet, resulting in paper bending or misfeeding.
This is likely to occur if:
• There is a tight curl on a delivered set of stapled sheets.
• Limp paper such as thin or recycled paper is used.

Note:
• For details about attaching the Z-fold support tray, see "When Z-folded Paper Is
Not Properly Aligned" in the Troubleshooting supplied with the machine.
• If the Z-fold support tray is attached, the trailing edge of the ejected sheets will
not be too close to the paper exit, so no problem will occur. However, the stapled
sheets may not be stacked properly.
