Xerox 497K20600 2/3 Hole Punch Finisher Accessory

What this accessory does

The Xerox 497K20600 is a two‑three hole punch unit that attaches to the office finisher on compatible AltaLink and VersaLink printers. It automates the punching of printed sets so they can be filed immediately without manual handling. Offices that produce bound reports, invoices or training packs will find it saves repetitive labour.

Compatibility that decides fit

This punch unit works only with the office finisher on AltaLink B8100 and C8100 series, and VersaLink B7000, B7100, C7000, C7100, C8000, C8000W and C9000 models. If your printer uses a different finisher or lacks the finisher option, the unit will not install. Buyers who need punching for other Xerox devices or third‑party finishers cannot use this part.

Behaviour during long print runs

The accessory operates as a mechanical module inside the finisher, so its throughput matches the finisher’s rated speed without adding a separate duty cycle. It punches each sheet as the finisher collates the set, maintaining consistent alignment across high‑volume jobs. There is no independent cooling or motor rating to monitor; the unit simply runs for as long as the host finisher is active.
