If you can see it, here is a close look at the squaring mechanism in action.
And the catch tray is adjustable, but usually should just stay out all the way.
Here is a close up of the final result, with a nice squared edge. The other end will stick out like this, though—so for the best results take a stack of squared booklets and cut off a tiny bit of the end with a stack cutter.

Formax presents the SquareIt SquareBack Booklet Finisher.
The SquareIt SquareBack Booklet Finisher enhances digitally printed booklets by squaring the binding, giving them a professional, perfect-bound look with the security of a stapled binding. Traditional stapled booklets won't lie flat and use lots of space in packaging and storage. Booklets processed with the SquareIt lie flat in a stack, requiring less space. Additionally, SquareIt booklets offer full use of the spine for printed information. The SquareIt is a compact unit that can stand alone or can be run in line with various digital printers and finishing equipment. It can handle booklets up to 24 pages thick and up to 9.5 by 12.75 inches. The easy-to-use control panel offers four thickness options for the ideal square back binding based on the number of pages. The process is easy: simply take your booklets off the digital printer or finisher, choose the booklet thickness, adjust the side guides, and feed the booklets one at a time through the SquareIt. An electronic photo-eye senses the booklet and automatically feeds it into the machine. Finished booklets are stacked neatly on the outfeed tray. The result is a professional-looking booklet with a square back.Take your booklets to the next level with the Formax SquareIt SquareBack Booklet Finisher.
