Energy Star Program
We have determined as a participating company in the International Energy Star Program that
this product is compliant with the standards laid out in the International Energy Star Program.
About the International Energy Star Program
International Energy Star Program has as its basic goals the promotion of efficient energy use
and the reduction of the environmental pollution that accompanies energy consumption by
promoting the manufacture and sale of products that fulfill program standards.
International Energy Star Program standards require that copies come equipped with a Low
Power Mode where energy consumption is reduced after a certain amount of time elapses since
the device was last used, as well as an Off Mode where the device automatically turns itself off
after there is no activity within a set amount of time. When the copier includes printer and fax
functions, the printer and fax must enter a Low Power Mode where power consumption is
automatically reduced after a certain amount of time elapses since they were last used, and they
must also support a Sleep Mode where power consumption is reduced to a minimum when
there is no activity within a set amount of time. This product is equipped with the following
features as a result of its compliance with International Energy Star Program standards.
Low Power Mode
The device automatically enters Low Power Mode when 15 minutes have passed since the
device was last used. The amount of time of no activity that must pass before Low Power Mode
is activated may be lengthened. Refer to Low-Power Mode on page 3-19 for more information.
Off Mode
The device automatically enters Off Mode when 90 minutes have passed since the device was
last used. The amount of time of no activity that must pass before Off Mode is activated may be
lengthened. For more information refer to Sleep Mode on page 3-20.
Sleep Mode (If the copier has printer and/or facsimile function)
The device automatically enters Sleep Mode when 90 minutes have passed since the device
was last used. The amount of time of no activity that must pass before Sleep Mode is activated
may be lengthened. For more information refer to Sleep Mode on page 3-20.
Automatic 2-Sided Copy Function
The Energy Star Program encourages the use of 2-sided copying which reduces the load on the
environment and this device includes 2-sided copying as a standard function. For example, by
copying two 1-sided originals onto a single sheet of paper as a 2-sided copy, it is possible to
lower the amount of paper used. For more information refer to Duplex Mode on page 3-11.
Paper Recycling
The Energy Star Program encourages the use of environmentally friendly recycled paper. Your
sales or service representative can provide information about recommended paper types.

Loading Originals
Loading Originals in the Document Processor
The document processor automatically scans each sheet of multiple originals individually. Both
sides of two-sided originals are scanned automatically.
The document processor supports the following types of originals.
ItemsSpecifications
Weight45 g/m² to 160 g/m²
SizeMinimum: 5
CapacityStandard paper (80 g/m²), colored paper or recycled paper: 200 sheets
(30 sheets in Auto Selection mode)
Coated paper: 1 sheet
High quality paper, 50 g/m²: 200 sheets
High quality paper, 110 g/m²: 145 sheets
Precautions on Types of Originals for Document Processor
Do not use the document processor for the following types of originals. In addition, if originals have
punched holes or perforations, load them with the holes or perforations away from the leading edge.
1/2 ×8 1/2" (A5R); Maximum: 11 × 17" (A3)
•Transparencies such as for overhead projectors
•Delicate originals such as carbon paper, crumpled paper, or vinyl sheets
•Irregularly shaped (non-rectangular) originals, wet originals, or originals containing adhesive
tape or glue
•Originals bound with clips or staples. (To avoid jams, remove the clips or staples and straighten
any curls, wrinkles, or creases before loading them. Failure to do so may cause the originals to
jam.)
•Originals with cut-out sections or with very slippery surfaces
•Originals with correction fluid which is not dried
•Originals with folds. (To avoid jams, straighten the folds before loading them. Failure to do so
may cause the originals to jam.)
How to Load Originals
Follow these steps to load originals in the document processor.
IMPORTANT: Before loading originals, be sure there
are no originals left on the original eject table. Originals
left on the original eject table may cause the new
originals to jam.
2-16
Adjust the original width guides to fit the originals.
1
Place the originals. Put the side to be copied (or the
2
first side of two-sided originals) face-up. Slide the
leading edge into the document processor as far as it
will go.
IMPORTANT: Confirm that the original width guides
exactly fits the originals. If there is a gap, readjust the
original width guides. The gap may cause the originals
to jam.
Preparing to Copy
Pull out the ejection guide for originals of 8 1/2 ×14"
(B4) or 11 × 17" (A3).
Ensure that loaded originals do not exceed the level
indicated. Exceeding the maximum level may cause
the originals to jam.
2-17
Preparing to Copy
Loading Originals on the Platen
To copy books, magazines, or other originals that cannot be loaded in the document processor,
open the document processor and place the original directly on the platen.
Adjust how the document processor opens by using
the document processor angle adjustment lever. Move
the lever left to open the document processor 60° and
move it right to open the document processor 30°.
IMPORTANT: Before opening the document
processor, be sure that there are no originals left on
the original table or on the original eject table.
Originals left on the original table or on the original
eject table may fall off the copier when the document
processor is opened.
Do not move the document processor angle
adjustment lever when the document processor is
open. Close the document processor before using the
lever.
Open the document processor.
1
Place the original. Put the copying side facedown and
2
align it flush against the original size indicator plates
with the back left corner as the reference point.

Overview of Optional Equipment
The following optional equipments are available for the copier.
Multi-Job Tray
Key Counter
Printer Kit
Scanner Kit
Document FinisherFolding Unit
4-2
Security Kit
Side Feeder
Side Feeder
The side feeder has a capacity of 4,000 sheets
measuring 11 × 8 1/2" (A4 or B5). It can be used in
conjunction with the copier's built-in cassettes to
provide a generous supply of paper for copying.
Document Finisher
The document finisher holds a large quantity of finished
copies. The finisher offers a convenient means of
sorting. It can also staple finished sets and punch holes
if equipped with the appropriate optional accessories.
Other options include the multi-job tray and folding unit.
Optional Equipment
Key Counter
The key counter enables you to monitor copier usage.
It offers a convenient solution for centralized
management of copy volume for different departments
in a large company.
4-3
Optional Equipment
Printer Kit
How to Insert the Key Counter
Insert the key counter securely into the key counter
slot.
NOTE: When the key counter function is activated,
copies can only be made when a key counter is
inserted into the copier. If the key counter is not
inserted securely, Insert key counter will be displayed.
Install the printer kit to use the copier as a printer as
well. The copier comes equipped with a network board
and can be used as a network printer accessible from
several computers over a network. Take further
advantage of the other expansion options available,
including the network interface and hard disk.
Scanner Kit
Security Kit
Install the scanner kit to use the copier as a network
scanner accessible from multiple computers over a
network.
The copier works by temporarily storing scanned data
on an internal hard disk. This data is used for copying
and cannot be detected by the copier afterwards. The
data remains on the hard disk, however, until it is
overwritten by other data. Thus, the data could
conceivably be retrieved by accessing the hard disk
