Abstract

A stapling stacker has a sheet infeed, a pivoted shelf on which the trailing ends of sheets are assembled with the leading ends supported by previously stacked sets, the sets are side edge aligned, stapled into sets and offset with respect to previously stapled sets, and the shelf then is operated to dump the trailing ends onto previously stapled sets of sheets on the stacker.
