Panel Resetting
The Panel Reset Key resets all control panel settings to default settings including the nu mber of copies and zoom ratio. * If the Duplexing Document Feeder is used, the
original present on the Original Glass will be ejected out of the unit.
Useful Tips
• The Panel Reset Key enables you to cancel all previous settings efficiently.
• To avoid miscopy, try to press this Key before making any se t ting for your own copy job.
• Pressing this Key does not cancel the Interrupt Mode.
Auto Panel Reset Function
The Auto Panel Reset Function is automatically activated to return the copier to the default settings 5 min. after the copier has been touched last.
Useful Tip
The time for the copier to enter the Auto Panel Reset Function can be selected from 1 to 9 min. by using User’s Choice. Also, the Auto Panel Reset function can be disabled by the User’s Choice. ☞p.5-19
Energy Saver Mode
If the copier is shut down when it is not in use, it takes the copier approx. 9 min. to complete the warm-up cycle. Instead of turning the copier OFF, it's a good idea to use the Energy Saver Mode. This mode will minimize the time for the copier to complete the warm-up cycle to about 60 sec.
• The Energy Saver Mode is automatically activated a given period of time after the copier has been touched last. The initial setting is 15 min.
• Pressing the Energy Saver Key sets the copier into the Energy Saver Mode.
• To cancel the Energy Saver Mode, press any key on the Control Panel, for instance, the Start Key.
Useful Tip
The time for the copier to enter the Energy Saver Mode can be selected from 1 to 240 min. by using User’s Choice. ☞p.5-19
Auto Copy Start Function
Even during the copier warm-up, the copier is set into the Auto Copy Start Function by loading the originals onto the Duplexing Document Feeder and pressing the Start Key. This Function allows a copy process to be sta rted as soon as the copier completes warming up (which takes approx. 9 min.).
Interrupt Mode
The Interrupt Mode allows you to interrupt a current job and run a different one. Pressing the Interrupt Key once sets the copier into the Interrupt Mode. Pressing the Key again cancels the Interrupt Mode and returns to the previous settings.
NOTES
• Pressing the Interrupt Key resets all settings to the initial ones. For details, see “Default Settings.” ☞p.5-1
• Some functions set before the Interrupt Mode disable Interrupt copying. Further, when in the Interrupt Mode, the copier defies setting of some functions. For more details, see “Function Combination Matrix.” ☞p.8-9

Useful Tips
• Touch (cancel) to cancel the settings made for, and exit from, Frame Erase.
• This copier has been designed to have a lost image of a width of 5 mm on the leading edge, 4 mm on the trailing edge, and 3 mm each on the front and rear edges in the full size mode. Set a frame erase “Width” wider than each of these values to have a frame erase effect at all.
• A shadow can at times be produced along the edges when you make an A3 Wide copy. We recommend that Frame Erase be used in such cases.

File Margin

The copier provides a file margin along the leading edge for your ease in filing. There are four different ways available for making a file margin. Use the one that is most suited to your need.
Functions
Shift-for-Margin
Original Copy
1161O197CA
The image of the original is shifted to the right to make a margin along the left edge of the copy.
Original Copy
Margin-by-Reduction
Original Copy
Professional Way to Make Color Copies Chapter 4
Original Copy
The image of the original is shifted to the bottom to make a margin along the top edge of the copy.
1155O053AA
The image of the original which has almost no file margins along the sides is reduced to make a wider margin along the left edge of the copy.
1155O054AA
The image of the original which has almost no file margins along the sides is reduced to make a wider margin along the top edge of the copy.
1155O055AA
Useful Tip
If the image of the original covers the entire surface of the original, Margin-by-Reduction will ensure a copy with no lost image along the edges.
