In-process finishing system module

As set forth herein, a finisher module (100) within an automated print system is described. A compiler delivery system (112) receives and organizes one or more sheets in a predetermined configuration for delivery. A compiling belt system (114,116) receives the one or more sheets from the compiler deliver system, locates the one or more sheets and transports the sheets concurrent to one or more finishing processes. A side tamper system moves alongside the compiling belt system to side tamp and register sheets in the cross process direction. A stapler/stitcher assembly (120) moves alongside the compiling belt system to perform at least one of a stapling and a stitching operation as the one or more sheets are transported.
