costs, the FW780 offers flexible paper

handling and a number of versatile

functions. This new wide-format solution

efficiency and make your drawing office

a smoother-running environment.

Optimal Original Handling

Copying old or less-than-perfect originals can
sometimes cause difficulties. With the FW780
you can handle these delicate originals with
care. As they can either be fed manually or
automatically with the auto original feed switch,
they suffer no wear and tear whatsoever.
or paste-up originals can be fed through the
FW770/780’s especially designed rear original
feeder which keeps them from being damaged.

Thick

Variety of Paper Types

Technical drawings, architectural renderings,
posters and maps are some of the documents
you use and copy daily. Thanks to its two
automatic roll feeders, the FW780 is suitably
equipped to handle documents on different
paper types and make sure you can effortlessly
copy them.

Making Multiple Copies

When you require several copies of one docu­ment, you do not need to feed your original
every time. You can now save time by making
up to 10 copies of each original automatically
with the FW780’s Multi Copy function. This
combines with the Copy Stacker to make
multiple copy orders easy to handle. And with
100% tolerance adjustment copies are always
exactly the same size as your original.

Cutting at
your Convenience

You can depend on the FW780 for cutting your
copies at the right length. Simply put in your
original and it will be cut automatically with
the Synchro Cut function. No more manual
setting and cutting. Your copies are there
waiting when you need them.

You can make up to 10 copies and deliver them

to the front thanks to the FW780’s Copy Tray.

Thick or paste-up originals are fed in a single

pass through the FW780’s rear feeder.
