1. Installation Precautions
WARNING
• Do not use a power supply with a voltage other than that specified. Avoid multiple connections to
one outlet: they may cause fire or electric shock. When using an extension cable, always check
that it is adequate for the rated current. ............................................................................................
• Connect the ground wire to a suitable grounding point. Not grounding the copier may cause fire or
electric shock. Connecting the earth wire to an object not approved for the purpose may cause
explosion or electric shock. Never connect the ground cable to any of the following: gas pipes,
lightning rods, ground cables for telephone lines and water pipes or faucets not approved by the
• Do not place the copier on an infirm or angled surface: the copier may tip over, causing injury. .....
• Do not install the copier in a humid or dusty place. This may cause fire or electric shock. ..............
• Do not install the copier near a radiator, heater, other heat source or near flammable material.
This may cause fire. ..........................................................................................................................
• Allow sufficient space around the copier to allow the ventilation grills to keep the machine as cool
as possible. Insufficient ventilation may cause heat buildup and poor copying performance. ..........
• Always handle the machine by the correct locations when moving it. ..............................................
• Always use anti-toppling and locking devices on copiers so equipped. Failure to do this may
cause the copier to move unexpectedly or topple, leading to injury..................................................
• Avoid inhaling toner or developer excessively. Protect the eyes. If toner or developer is
accidentally ingested, drink a lot of water to dilute it in the stomach and obtain medical attention
immediately. If it gets into the eyes, rinse immediately with copious amounts of water and obtain
medical attention. ..............................................................................................................................
• Advice customers that they must always follow the safety warnings and precautions in the copier’s

Description
Turns on or off the DP scanning position adjust mode, in which the DP original scanning position is adjusted
automatically by determining the presence or absence of dust on the slit glass. Also changes the reference
data for identifying dust.
Reference
In the DP original scanning position adjust mode, the presence or absence of dust is determined by comparing
the scan data of the original trailing edge and that taken after the original is conveyed past the DP original
scanning position. If dust is identified, the DP original scanning position is adjusted for the following originals.

2-1-1 Mechanical construction
The DP consists of the original feed section, original conveying section and original switchback section.
The original feed section conveys an original set on the original table to the original conveying section in synchronization
with original scanning of the scanner on the copier.
The original conveying section conveys an original onto the slit glass and ejects it after scanning is complete.
The original switchback section reverses an original conveyed from the original conveying section and conveys it again
to the original conveying section in the double-sided original mode.

(1) Operation of original switchback
In the double-sided original mode, after the first side of an original is scanned, the switchback feedshift guide is activated
to switch the conveying path to the switchback tray side and the original is fed to the switchback tray. Then, the original is
reversed by the reverse rotation of the original conveying motor (OCM) and conveyed again to the original conveying
section. After the second side is scanned, the original is fed temporarily to the switchback tray, is reversed, is conveyed
without scanning, and then is ejected to the exit tray. Also the switchback press solenoid (SBPSOL) is activated to
release the switchback pulley for preventing original jams in the original switchback section.
