Important Safeguards

Important Safeguards

Always follow these important safeguards:
Read all of these instructions before using the unit.
1
Plug the power cord into a 3-conductor

a water pipe.
Keep the power cord away from hot surfaces.
Avoid using an extension cord if possible.
If you must use an extension cord, use only a
3-conductor cord rated for the ampere rating of your unit. Refer to the Specifications Chapter for this value. Power cords rated for less can overheat and become a fire hazard.
Do not operate the unit if any part of it is damaged, or if any part has been dropped, until it

Exposed to direct sunlight
Extremely dusty
Poorly ventilated
Close to machines generating ammonia such as diazo copy machines.
Subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes, for example, near an air
conditioner or heater.
Place the unit on a firm, level surface.
6
For proper ventilation and cooling, keep the unit at least 0.4 inches back from the wall and
7
allow 0.4 inches of clearance on the left and right sides of the copier. Allow 29.6 inches of clearance in the front.

Copier Functions 3 - 1

Document Feeder

Document Feeder
The Reversing Automatic Document Feeder (RADF), feeds originals to the Exposure Glass for copying and it turns the original over for copying the other side of th e original. Then, it exits the original onto the Document Tray.

Precautions when using Document Feeders

1. Avoid using:
You can place up to 50 originals in the Document Feeder for automatic feeding of
originals to the Exposure Glass for copying.
You may also select a feature which allows you to feed one original at a time into the
Document Feeder without having to press the Start key each time.
Badly wrinkled or folded originals
Clipped or stapled originals
Carbon paper
Torn originals
Taped orig i nal s
Damp originals
1. Folded or curled origin als should be smoothed out be fore inserting into the Docum e nt Feeder.
2. Feeding a stack of different width originals throu gh the Document Feeder is not recommended. Feed th em through one at a tim e. You can, however, feed a stack of different length originals through th e Document Feeder.
3. If the surface of an y two originals are so rough that they cannot be moved when pinc he d between two fingertips, the fri ct ion between the originals may obstruct paper separation even when the paper weight is within specifications.
2. Avoid covering the two sensors on the doc­ument feed er tray. These se ns ors detect the original size and co ul d cause the original size to not be properly detected.
3 - 2 Copier Functions

RADF - Feeding Stack of Originals

RADF allows you to stack feed up to 50 originals into the Document Feeder by pressing the Start key one time. If you are feeding single sheets into the Document Feeder, switch the copy mode to RADF and you will not have to press the Start key for each original. See RADF­Feeding One Original at a Time, below.
When using the RADF, place your originals
