ABSTRACT:
A cartridge from which a staple refill cannot be taken out until all sheet-like connected staple is discharged. A cartridge is drawably provided in a stapler body and has a receiving room for receiving a staple refill, an engagement member with which one side of the staple refill is engaged, and a lock member for locking the engagement member. The lock member has a contact portion that comes in contact with a sheet-like connected staple, discharged from a discharge opening of the staple refill, when the staple refill is received in the receiving room. When the contact portion is in contact with the sheet-like connected staple, the lock member locks the engagement member to prevent separation of the staple refill.
