Narrow crown staplers only use narrow crown staples, similiarly, wide
crown staplers only use wide crown staples, the same goes for medium crown
staplers=medium crown staples. Maybe you really want to know the
difference between the staples and not the staplers.
*Wide Crown Staples* - Wide crown staples are typically large, heavy-duty
staples. Theyre mostly used in applications where the staples just have
to work, without looking pretty. Theyre used in construction
applications, such as roofing, house wrap and truss construction.
Theyre also used for furniture frames and cabinet frames, and
carton-to-skid attachment in packaging.

*Medium Crown Staples *- Medium crown staples typically have more uses
then their wide crown brothers. They play a big role in home construction,
as theyre used for cedar shingles, fascia and soffits, fencing, floor
underlayment, and siding. Like wide crown staples, they too can be used in
furniture and cabinet frames. Theyre also used in pallets, crates, and
boxes.

*Narrow Crown Staples* - Narrow crown staples have a narrower scope of
where theyre used, but can be used in more €œdelicate€� applications,
like installing moulding, trim, and lattice. Theyre used in cabinet and
drawer making, as well as for fascia and soffits. Their narrow crown make
them more easily hidden than their wide and medium crown brothers.

differing holding strengths for differing materials. (roof shingles take a
1" crown for example)
Fencing can use a 1/2 " crown
lesser noticeable penetration holes-smallest crown- finish work

if staple is shot with the grain it may penetrate too far.
if staple is shot cross grain it causes more distortion in wood product.
(plywood it does not matter in this case) straight grain wood does matter,
and cross grain shot produces more
damage to face, with grain shot may penetrate too far, and I like 45o angle
shot that grabs grain, and is less damaging to surface.
just a few thoughts on staples.

And if doing a roof, Use only quality Stainless staples.

A whole building project - hundreds of homes in San Jose Ca - was put
in with normal steel staples and they all rusted. A wind storm took
off roof after roof of shingles. It was a real mess and a nasty
lawsuit. The builder won, the shingler who cheapened out had to pay for
proper installation and materials. The people had tarps over their
homes for many months.

Not legal where I am...

I would not even use a roof staple.
I used to use them years ago, and only use full head nails, stainless the
best.

Let me guess, the builder was K&B, and the area st. teresa?

That sounds familiar but it has been a dozen years or more.
