Making Copies

Highly Transparent Originals

1139O0070A

Place the original in the same way as the sheet originals.

Place a blank sheet of paper o f the same size as the original over

the original. Then lower the Original Cover.

NOTE

If this is not done, the copier will not be able to detect the size of the original and the Auto Paper or Aut o S iz e fu nc tion is disabled. Further, the cop y produce d may be of poor quality.

2. Basic Copying Procedure

Book Original

*"Book origina l" refers to an open bound original.

Posit ion th e highe r -n umb ere d pag e on the Original Widt h Scale e nd. If the book is thick, you can make copies with the Orig inal Cover raised .

NOTES

Not positioning an open book

1134O037AA

properly will result in copies with pages in incorrect order.

•

Do not look directly at the Original Glass surface, as a very intense beam of light can be emitted.

NOTES

•

Be sure to rais e the Or iginal Cover 15° or m ore before placing the origin al. If the Cover is raised only to an angle less than 15°, the copier may fail to select the correct copy paper size or zoom raio.

copies from them. If you ru n th e copy cycle without letting the copier count the number of originals, the copier starts the 2-in-1 copy cycle by first using the last two originals. This means that you will end up having a blank page besi de page 1 on the last copy. See be low.
