Abstract: A stapler includes a base, a head movably coupled to the base and including a magazine assembly, a driver mechanism operable to drive a staple from the magazine assembly, and a cartridge configured to receive a roll of staples, the cartridge cooperating with the magazine assembly to define an interface. The interface includes a channel of the magazine assembly configured to slidably receive a forward end of the cartridge, a non-latching-type engagement configured to inhibit sliding movement between the cartridge and the magazine assembly, and a latching-type engagement configured to retain the cartridge in fixed relationship to the magazine assembly.
