equipment by means of energy-saving features, such as Low Power mode, Auto Off mode,
and Duplex Priority.
• Low Power Mode
This copier automatically lowers its power consumption 1 minute after the last copying job
has been completed. To exit the Low Power mode, press the {Clear Modes/Energy Saver}
key . The copier returns to the ready condition in about 30 seconds. (T ype 2 and T ype 3 return
immediately .) To change the Low Power delay, see pag e 97 “Low Power Timer”.
• Auto Off Mode
T o conserve ener gy, this copier automatically turns off 90 minutes after the last cop ying job

Important
❏ If you use damp or curled paper, a misfeed might occur. In such a case, try turning over the
paper stack in the paper tray. If there is no impro vement, change to copy pa per with less curl.
Note
❏ If you load paper of the same size and in the same orientation in two or more trays, the
machine automatically shifts to another tray when the tray in use runs out of paper. This
function is called Auto Tr ay Switch. (If you put recycled paper or special paper in paper trays
using the Select Special tray menu, this function is not available to these trays unless their
settings are identical.) This saves interrupting a copy run to replenish paper even when you
make a large number of copies. You can cancel this setting. ⇒ See page 98 “Paper Tray
Display in APS mode”, page 100 “Auto tray Switching”, and page 99 “Select Special tray”.

ink have completely dried. Not taking this
precaution could mark the exposure glass
and cause marks to be copied.
❏ The maximum load that the (optional)
original tray can carry is 4 kg (8.8lb). Set
the originals gently.
Note
❏ Basically the originals should be aligned
to the rear left corner. Ho wever , some copy
functions may produce different results
depending on the orientation of the originals. For details, see the individual functional descriptions.
Note
