Square iT2 Squareback Booklet Finisher

$0.00 CAD

The Square iT2 is a compact, user-friendly unit that combines two functions in a single pass: it squares the binding and trims the face edge. Getting professional results from an existing staple-and-fold finisher has never been easier.

Squarebacked booklets lie flat, making them easier to pack, store and ship, with the added option of printing on the spine. Operators can choose the amount of square fold pressure to produce the ideal squareback finish based on booklet thickness.

However, even squarebacked booklets have the unsightly look of shingled pages. The Square iT2 makes quick work of that problem, with a powerful face trimming blade, to give them a finished, professional look. For full-bleed jobs, the side trim function trims the top and bottom of the booklet in multiple passes. Trimmed edges are collected in the waste tray which is easy to access for emptying.
