If you have an odd number of originals in 1 2, 1 1[2in1], or 1 2[2in1], some inconvenient s ituations resul t in page organization of your output copies. The copier provides the Original Count Mode in which it counts th e number of originals l oaded in the AFR-7 to determine whether it needs to make th e odd-pag e correction.

Suppose you have an odd number of originals and you want to make 2-in-1

copies fr om them. If you run the copy cycle without letting the copier count the number of originals, the copier starts the 2-in-1 copy cycle by fir st using the last two originals. This means that you will end up having a blank page beside page 1 on the l a s t copy. See below.
