Swingline recommends their S.F. 4 premium staples however the stapler jammed on the first time I used it.Unable to fix it myself so I returned it. I wouldn't recommend this stapler because of it's problem with jamming even using their recommended staples.

I'm not sure there is such a thing as "regular" staples, but we have used ones that aren't the optima ones and it appeared to work fine

Yes it does use regular staples. I changed to the suggested longer staples (I have a CPA office) for tax season. I did not have one jam up the entire season and the stapler was used a lot every day. I am moving to larger office the end of the month and will probably purchase several more of these for each room in the new office because of its impeccable performance since I purchased it. Again the regular staples do work but are not long or strong enough to securely fasten all the pages.

yes, but don't use cheap ones. They will get jammed and cut your finger trying to pull them out.

We have two of these staplers, one short and one long and they work beautifully. Never had a problem with it. It does require specialty staples however

none! That's the beauty! It cuts and folds the paper in a very clever way, meaning you don't need staples at all!

Yes. Mine came with 1" staples I believe but I needed longer staples for the project I was working on.

It doesn't use mini staples, it uses the standard full-size staples that most desktop staplers use.

I didn't get staples with my stapler, but I purchased a few different size staples at the same time I purchased the stapler. When I bind thick books around 1/2" I learned to slowly press down on the handle until the staple does its job. Do it fast and it will crush the staple.

Sorry I haven't answered sooner. I have been on vacation. I checked today and it will staple in 1/4 inch. I hope this is helpful to you!

Not really sure what you mean here but I will give it a shot. There is not difference in the edge or the entire are of the material so I would say "regular", not staple edge.

This stapler only accepts staples of one width, but it will accept several different lengths. You might look online for the manual and find the detail you are seeking.

I don't know if that is a compatible staple. I ordered the ones from amazon that were compatible. Sorry I wasn't helpful.

Yes a few but you need to buy the longer heavy duty staples for this machine. Regular staples are too short

I am no expert. But I purchased the staples that came with it. I have a regular Bostitch stapler and it only uses B8 staples. So far I like it very much - very powerful, but loud.

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

Just standard staples; I used the same ones I use in my regular stapler. The machine is exactly like a normal desk stapler; it just has a longer arm.

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.

No. I use it on my Staples cross-shredder, alternately with shredder sheets. Everything has been working well for several years now.

In mine, I can only load 10 staples at a time or the magazine won't close. Not designed very well if it can't take a whole strip of standard staples.
