Standard Printing

----Printing
In this manual, the word, “printing” is used as opposed to “copying” in or­der to distinguish between the proc­ess that your machine uses to make prints, and the process used by a standard copier machine.
A standard copier scans in the origi­nal for each copy set made. This ma­chine, however, scans in your original once and makes multiple prints from this master.
This chapter describes the basic print­ing operations that your machine is capable of.
Place the original face down in
AAAA
the document feeder. Adjust the original side guides to match the size of the original.
Standard Printing

Operation Notes

General Cautions
• While printing, do not turn off the main switch.
• While printing, do not open the door or covers.
• While printing, do not unplug the power cord.
• While printing, do not move the machine.
• Keep corrosive liquids, such as acid, off the machine.
• Open and close the door and covers softly.
• Do not put anything except originals on the machine.
• Do not spill liquid on the machine.
• When opening or closing the door or covers, keep hold of them so they do not
fall.
• When removing the drum unit from the machine, be careful not to let the drum unit fall.
• Do not modify or replace any parts other than the ones specified in this man­ual.
• Do not operate the machine without covers. You might get your fingers caught in the machine, or the machine might be damaged because, for exam­ple, dust or the like might get inside.
• Since some parts of the machine are sharp and might cause injury, touch only the parts specified in this manual.
• If you clean rubber parts with alcohol, wipe them with a dry cloth afterwards.
• Always turn the machine off when you have finished printing for the day.
• If the machine must be transported by vehicle, please contact your service
representative.
• Always make trial prints to check the image position because the image posi­tion of the trial print might not correspond with that of the original.
• If image registration is not consistent, slow down the printing speed.
• When doing bicoloured or multicoloured printing, leave the printed paper
for a while before the next printing in order to let the ink dry on the printed paper. If this is not done, feed roller marks will appear on the print image.
• If the machine has not been used for a long period, the ink may dry up caus­ing image density to decrease. In such a case, select the slower printing speed and make extra prints until the image density recovers.
63
Page 70
Remarks
• When the machine is used in low temperature conditions, the image density might decrease. In this case, select the slower printing speed.
• Press the {{{{Proof}}}} key to perform a test print as the first few prints might be light.
• The outer portion of the image might not be printed under low temperature. In this case, either select the slower printing speed, or increase the room tem­perature.
• The paper exit pawl might come in contact with the printing paper and cause black lines on the prints. In this case, increase the printing speed or make a new master with a lighter image density.
• If you cannot pull out the drum, close the front cover again to rotate the drum. Pull out the drum after it stopped at the position.
• The leading edge of the prints might become stained if the edge touches the image of prints on the paper delivery tray.
• The ink of the print on the paper delivery tray might stick to the back side of
5
the next print.
• When the machine is on and the power source is less than 90% of the specified amount, printing quality will decrease. Therefore, make sure the supply from your electrical outlet is at least 90% of the required amount.
• As various kinds and qualities of paper exist, some paper might be wrapped around the drum or cause misfeeds.
• If your hands are stained with ink:
• Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.
• Cleanse skin thoroughly after contact, before breaks and meals, and at the
end of the work period.
• Ink is readily removed from skin with waterless hand cleaners followed by
washing with soap and water.
• Also, be careful not to get any ink on your clothing while emptying the master eject box or while loading a new ink cartridge.
• The image density varies according to the printing speed and the room tem­perature. To achieve the desired image density, adjust the printing speed or increase the room temperature.
• When you make a lot of prints from a small image, ink might ooze out from the edges of the master, especially under high temperature and when print­ing in two or more colours. In this case, make a new master.
• Use ink made within one year. Ink stored for a long period of time tends to dry up gradually and result in lower image density.
• While making a master, do not leave the document feeder cover open.
• When you use originals with light lettering, edges of the letters might be
printed clearly and the inside of the letters might be light. In this case, in­crease the image density.

Page 71
Operation Notes
• When marks on the printing paper occur, clean the paper feed roller. See p.68 “Paper Feed Roller (paper feed tray)”.
• If you make a print before the ink on the first print dries, the ink may adhere
to the paper feed roller and soil the print. Before printing on the reverse side of a printed sheet or overprinting on a printed sheet, be sure that the ink on the first print is adequately dry. See p.68 “Paper Feed Roller (paper feed tray)”.
Print Paper
• When the paper is curled, stack the paper with the curl face down, otherwise the paper might wrap around the drum or stains might appear.
• Postcards and the like do not absorb ink well. Offset images might appear on the rear side of subsequent prints. Solid image originals will cause offset im­age prints.
Originals
• If there is no margin or if there is a solid image area near the leading edge of the original, make at least a 5 mm, 0.2", margin at the leading edge; otherwise, the paper might wrap around the drum or the paper exit pawl might become dirty and cause black lines on prints.
• If you use originals that have bold letters or solid images at the leading edges, you might get prints with dirty edges. In this case, insert the widest margin first, or increase the printing speed.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if instructions are not followed, may result in minor or moderate injury or damage to property.
R WARNING:
• Do not damage, break or make any modifications to the power cord.
Do not place heavy objects on it. Do not pull it hard nor bend it more than necessary. These actions could cause an electric shock or fire.
• Disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug, not the cable) if the
power cable or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged.
• To avoid hazardous electric shock, do not remove any covers or
screws other than those specified in this manual.
• Turn off the power and disconnect the power plug (by pulling the plug,
not the cable) if any of the following occurs:
• You spill something into the machine.
• You suspect that your machine needs service or repair.
• The external housing of your machine has been damaged.
• Keep the machine away from flammable liquids, gases, and aerosols.
A fire or an electric shock might occur.
• Connect the power cord directly into a wall outlet and never use an ex-
tension cord.
• Only connect the machine to the power source described in this man-
ual.
• Disposal can take place at our authorized dealer or at appropriate col-
lection sites.

R CAUTION:
• After you move the machine, use the caster fixture to fix it in place. Other-
wise the machine might move or come down to cause an injury.
• If you use the machine in a confined space, make sure there is a continuous
air turnover.
• Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an elec-
tric shock might occur.
• Protect the machine from dampness or wet weather, such as rain and snow.
• Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over,
an injury might occur.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine.
While moving the machine, you should take care that the power cord will not be damaged under the machine.
• When you disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull the
plug (not the cable).
• Do not allow paper clips, staples, or other small metallic objects to fall inside
the machine.
• For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the machine or expended
supply waste at household waste collection points. Disposal can take place at an authorized dealer.
• When disposing of a used ink container, reattach the cap to prevent ink from
splattering.
• Be careful not to get ink on your clothes when replacing an ink container. Ink
stains on clothes are hard to remove.
• Be careful not to cut yourself on any sharp edges when you reach inside the
machine to remove misfed sheets of paper or masters.
• If ink comes into contact with your eyes, rinse immediately in running water.
For other symptoms, consult a doctor.
• Keep the ink or ink container out of reach of children.
• If ink is ingested, induce vomiting by drinking a strong saline solution. Con-
sult a doctor immediately.
• If your skin comes into contact with ink, wash the affected area thoroughly
with soap and water.
• While printing, do not touch the belt at the end of the paper delivery tray or
the job separator. Otherwise, an injury might occur.
• Our products are engineered to meet the high standards of quality and func-
tionality, and we recommend that you only use the expendable supplies available at an authorized dealer.

Printing Paper

The following types of print paper are not recommended for this machine.
• Paper smaller than 90 mm × 140 mm, 3.6" × 5.6"
• Paper larger than 275 mm × 395 mm, 10.8" ×15.6"
• Paper heavier than 127.9 g/m
• Paper lighter than 35 g/m
• Roughly-cut paper
• Paper of different thickness in the same stack
• Buckled or curled paper
• Low stiffness paper
Correct curls in the paper before setting it in the machine. When you cannot cor­rect the paper curl, stack the paper with the curl face down. Otherwise the paper might wrap around the drum or stains might appear.
Store paper where it will not curl or absorb moisture. Use paper soon after it is unpacked.
Only use paper where the leading edge has two right angle corners, as shown below.
