ABSTRACT:
Finishing operations on media processing jobs, such as from laser printer or photocopier devices, are performed in an intermediate output bin and subsequently transferred to a final output bin. One or more finishing mechanisms are disposed to cooperate with the intermediate output bin for performing finishing operations on the media in sequential order. A transfer mechanism operates to move the media from finishing operation to finishing operation in the intermediate output bin, and subsequently to the final output bin once the finishing operations are complete. The final output bin is thus capable of storing multiple finished jobs. The finishing operations may be a registration (alignment) process, a binding process, a hole punching process, and the like.
