1179P213EB
The following three different types of paper can
be designated for each paper source.
: Plain Paper (20 to 24 lb)
When this setting is made, the paper source can be
a candidate for Auto Paper.
: Thin Paper (20 lb)
This setting excludes the paper source from
selection for Auto Paper. Make this setting for the
source loaded with thin paper to prevent the paper
from being used for a wrong purpose.
: Thick Paper 1 (24 to 34 lb)
This setting excludes the paper source from
selection for Auto Paper. Make this setting for the
source loaded with thick paper to prevent the
paper from being used for a wrong purpose.
Auto Tray Switching
If the tray currently selected for use runs out of
paper and there is another tray loaded with paper
of the same size and in the same direction, the
copier automatically selects that second tray to
continue copying.
Useful Tip
This feature is a great advantage when you need
to make a large number of copies on the same
size paper. For example, you can make up to
1,250 copies without interruption if all three
trays are loaded with paper of the same size and
in the same direction. You can even make up to
2,350 copies if an optional Large Capacity
Cassette is additionally fitted to the copier.
A tray with any kind of paper other than Plain
paper can also be set as a candidate for Auto Tray
Switching. For more details, consult your
Technical Representative.

* If the number of copies selected exceeds 5, the copy cycle stops at the 25th original.
* To have a complete set of originals, place the copies from the 6th Bin on top of those from the 1st Bin.
In the same way, place the copies from the 7th Bin on top of those from the 2nd Bin, and so on.
When the Number of Copies Selected Exceeds 25 in the Group Mode

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
OriginalCopy
1161O197CA
The image of the original is shifted to the right to make a
margin along the left edge of the copy.

Margin-by-Reduction
OriginalCopy
Professional Way to Make Color CopiesChapter 4
OriginalCopy
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.
