I believe I ordered a box of the staples for this stapler. Love this stapler by the way.....

No. Just plug it in a wall outlet and it is ready to go. Read loading instructions closely before adding staples.

I recently purchased the same printer and because it came with the "starter" toner purchased that genuine toner here on Amazon. It works just fine. BTW, Amazon was cheaper than Staples.

No. The staples on this stapler are thicker and bigger than the regular ones.

No, this stapler does not come with staples. At least I didn't receive any when I purchased it in mid 2012. It works great for sealing cardboard edges for album mailers. It takes a gentle motion. Too hard and your staple will break through the top of he cardboard. Use it right and it's perfect. Never jams either.

I don't believe it came with any and they said they would update the item. I think I ended up buying some at Staples.

Just tried, it does not. But even with that minor limitation, it is still the best stapler ever. I still like it just as much as before.

sorry you're having that problem. I'm not. first make sure you have the right staples. I had to buy them from Munix cause any other staples did not work and min jammed, too. Hope this helps. It's a wonderful stapler if you use it right and a very good price. otherwise Perhaps you need to send it back.

Yes, it comes with a starter tape. So many tapes can be used, search 'brother tape'.

you have to buy them separate but this is a great stapler especially for the money. I've stapled 70+ sheets, no problem

Comes with brads(short nails) and several sizes of staples. Load one or the other. Agree with zilla59 on brads. Haven't tried staples.

Yes, this uses standard staples, I bought it for closing paper yard bags and it works well

Yes, I've purchased 2 of them and both were held together with staples. I simply reinforced them using wood screws and they are still working fine Hope this helps.

It uses regular size staples. However, I could not get it to staple 20 pages... it stapled about 12 pages, maximum. I found this stapler absolutely useless and returned it. I would NOT recommend this stapler to anyone.

Loading staples wasn't intuitive for me either. Look on YouTube for the guy having his 4 yr old demo the proper way. It is simple. Hint. Turn stapler bottom up, slide out the tray, then drop staples point-up into the body of the stapler, close it up. Voila.

It uses standard staples, at least until it breaks. For me that was on the 3rd staple.
