Trademarks

Macintosh and Mac OS are trademarks of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries.

Operations and Terms Used in the Manuals

This machine makes effective use of memory to perform print operations efficiently. For example, as soon as the machine has scanned the original that you want to copy, it can immediately scan the next person’s original. You can also print from this machine, using a function other than the Copy function. In this machine, these operations take place in a complex way, so that not only copies, but also various kinds of prints may sometimes have to wait their turn before they can be printed.

To avoid confusion when reading the manuals, the terms, “scanning,” “printing,” and “copying,” used throughout the manuals are defined below. When making a copy, the process of scanning originals and printing copies may be described as separate functions.

Scanning

Scanning an original to be copied or sent to a client computer, fax machine, etc.

x

Printing

Outputting documents such as a copy, fax, or data sent from a client computer to the machine.

Copying

Printing data scanned from an original, followed by finishing options, such as stapling.
