Abstract
There is provided a printing system having a finishing apparatus for receiving and processing a job, with the finishing apparatus having an adjustable finishing component adapted to perform a finishing operation on one or more print media sheets. The printing system includes a controller for receiving a programmed finishing parameter, the programmed finishing parameter indicating a manner in which the job is to be finished. The printing system further includes an actuator for moving the adjustable finishing component in a selected direction. In operation, the controller receives the programmed finishing parameter and converts it into a set-up signal, the set-up signal varying as a function of the programmed finishing parameter. In turn a set-up image is generated with the set-up signal and the set-up image, which includes a target indicator, is used, in conjunction with the actuator, to adjust the adjustable finishing component.
