Yes, a stapler can be considered a type of lever. The action of pressing down on the stapler's handle operates a lever mechanism inside that drives a staple through paper.
A stapler is a lever because it uses a pivot point and a force to join papers together. It can also be considered a wedge because the staple itself has a wedge shape that penetrates the papers, holding them together.
The stapler has its top and bottom joined at the hinge. Pressure applied on the top forces it against the bottom as the staple is pushed out. There is no mechanical advantage as with similar devices, such as the nutcracker.
A stapler is designed in such a way that it can be used with power at the middle or work at the middle. Mostly it is used with power at the middle; in this case it is class 3. If the power is applied at the end it is class 2.
