y To prevent paper from being folded or bent, store it in a flat place.
12 Placing Copy Paper
1.BEFORE USING EQUIPMENT
Placing copy paper in drawers
Follow the procedure below to place paper in a drawer. For acceptable copy paper, see the following page:
P.11 “Acceptable copy paper”
Turn the power of this equipment ON.
1
Pull out a drawer carefully until it comes to a stop.
2
Push the part shown with an arrow (right side) of the
3
side guide to unlock it.
1 BEFORE USING EQUIPMENT
Place paper in the drawer.
4
y Up to 600 sheets (64 g/m2) (17 lb. Bond) can be placed in one drawer. Be sure that the height of the stacked
paper does not exceed the line indicated inside of the side guides.
P.11 “Acceptable copy paper”
y Fan and jog the stack of paper well before you place it in a drawer, or the sheets may not be separated
before being fed. Be careful not to cut your fingers when fanning them.
y Tidy the paper and place it while aligning it with the right-hand inside surface of the drawer. If there is a gap,
paper misfeeding or size detection failure could result.
y Place paper with its copy side up. The copy side may be noted on its wrapping paper.
Placing Copy Paper 13
1 BEFORE USING EQUIPMENT
Move the end guide to the trailing edge of the paper
5
while pushing its lower part in the direction of the
arrow.
While holding the green lever of the front side guide,
6
adjust the side guides to the paper size.
Adjust the side guides with both hands.
Confirm that there is no extra gap between the paper
7
and the side or end guides.
If the gap between the paper and the side or end guides is too big, this
equipment may not be able to detect the size of the paper, and this
would result in paper misfeeding.
Gap between the paper and the side guides (“A” in the figure on
the right): Do not make a gap of more than 0.5 mm (0.02") on one
side or 1.0 mm (0.04") on both sides. However, if a paper jam
occurs in the case of thick paper, create a suitable gap.
Gap between the paper and the end guide (“B” in the figure on the
right): Do not make a gap of more than 0.5 mm (0.02").
Push the part shown with an arrow (left side) to lock
8
the side guide.
Change the paper size indicator if required.

When you place any special paper other than plain paper or that not used for normal copying, you need to set the
thickness and attribute into this equ i pment.
y The thickness and attribute can be set together.
y When the thickness “THICK 1, 2 or 3” is set for a drawer, or the attribute other than “NONE” is set for a drawer, any
paper placed in this drawer will not be used for normal copying.
y The set paper type appears on the equipment status indication area with an icon.

2 HOW TO MAKE COPIES
Before Making Copies
Storage of color copies
When storing color copies, be careful of the following:
y Avoid a place exposed to light. The colors may fade when they are stored in such a place for a long time.
y If copies are stored pressed between plastic sheets made of chloroethylene for a long time, toner may melt and stick to
the plastic. For long-time storage, use polyethylene binders.
y When a color copy is folded, toner at the folded part may flake off. Do not fold color copies when storing them.
y Toner on copies may melt if it touches solvent or ink not fully dried. Keep copies away from them.
y When copies are left under an extremely high temperature environment such as in the vicinity of a heater, toner may
melt. Store them at room temperature and avoid extreme temperature changes.
Forgery prevention function
This equipment has a forgery prevention function. Fully manage this equipment not to allow anyone to copy or scan
prohibited items using this equipment.
Legal Restriction on Copying/Scanning
y It may be prohibited to copy/scan copyrighted material without permission of the copyright owner.
y Copying/Scanning the following items is prohibited and may be penalized by low.
It may not be limited to these items. Do not knowingly copy/scan the items that are not to be copied/scanned.
Paper money
Bank note
Securities
Stamp
Passport
Certificate
y Local laws and regulations may prohibit or restrict copying/scanning of other items not mentioned above.

Placing Originals
Acceptable originals
When the RADF (Reversing Automatic Document Feeder) is used, 2-sided originals can be automatically scanned one
sheet after another. When the original glass is used, originals such as OHP films, tracing paper, booklet or 3-dimensional
objects, that cannot be placed on the RADF can be scanned, as well as plain paper.

y Automatic size detection does not work properly when A/B format originals are used in equipment for North
America. It does not work properly when LT format originals are used in equipment other than that for North
America.
y Automatic size detection does not work properly when K format paper is used for printing. (K format is a standard
paper size in China.)
y Do not place any heavy objects (4 kg (9 lb.) or over) on the original glass and do not press on it with force.
y Be sure to place ST-size or A5-size originals in a landscape direction when using the RADF.
Maximum number of sheets for one scanning
A maximum of 1000 sheets (A4-size and LT-size originals) can be scanned per 1 copy job or up until the embedded
memory becomes full. When the number of scanned sheets has exceeded the above limit, this equipment stops scanning
and the message below appears.
If you want to print out the data scanned up until then, press [YES]. If you want to delete them, press [NO].
Placing Originals 27
2 HOW TO MAKE COPIES
Placing originals on the original glass
The original glass can be used for originals such as OHP films or tracing paper, as well as plain paper, that cannot be
placed on the RADF.
Do not place any heavy objects (4 kg (9 lb.) or over) on the original glass and do not press on it with force.
Breaking the glass could injure you.
Raise the RADF.
1
Raise it 60 degrees or more so that the size of the original can be detected correctly.
Place the original with its face down on the original
2
glass and align it against the left rear corner of the
glass.
When you copy highly transparent originals
When you copy highly transparent originals such as OHP films or
tracing paper, place a blank sheet, which is the same size as the
original or larger, over the original.
Lower the RADF carefully.
