OVERALL MACHINE INFORMATION

1. OVERALL MACHINE INFORMATION

1.1 OVERVIEW

A808V500.WMF

This kit connects two A229 copiers. If the user wishes to have two copiers work on one copy job, the user starts the job on one copier. The copy job will also be made on the other copier.

The copier on which the user pressed the “Connect” key on the display is known as the “Master Unit” and the other copier is the “ Slave Unit”.

Features for the job can only be selected on the master unit.

There is no restriction on the two connected copiers and their configurations (65 cpm copier or 55 cpm copier, with finisher or without finisher etc). However, with some combinations, the available functions are limited.

NOTE: The printer and document server functions cannot use the copy connect mode.
