The following types of print paper are not recommended for this machine.

• Paper smaller than 70 mm × 148 mm, 2.8" × 5.9"

• Paper larger than 297 mm × 432 mm, 11.6" × 17.0"

• Paper heavier than 209.3 g/m

• The following types of envelopes

If you make a print on rough grain paper, the copy image might be blurred. You can use A3 (297 × 420 mm) or 11" × 17" originals or printing paper. When

you want to print the entire image of an A3, 11" × 17" original, select Reduce mode because the maximum print areas are as follows:

• Metric version: 290 × 409 mm, 11.4" × 16.1"

OPERATION

Important

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. If paper is

curled, it might wrap around the drum or stains might appear. Do not store paper where it will be exposed to heat or direct sunlight. Store on a flat surface. 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.

12

Originals

The following original sizes set on the exposure glass (contact glass) can be detected.

Metric version A3L, B4L, A4 Inch version

Under the following conditions, the machine might not detect the original. In this case, select the original image area with the “Edge Erase—Erasing Edge Margins”.

• When you use originals with index tabs.

• When you use OHP transparencies or translucent originals.

• When you use dark originals.

• When you use originals with solid images.

• When you use originals other than the sizes described above. If you do not lift the platen cover more than 30 cm, 12" when you replace origi-

nals, the machine might not detect the original.

The maximum original size you can set on the exposure glass (contact glass) is

304.8 × 432 mm, 12" × 17". 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, set the original face down with the widest margin toward the paper delivery tray or raise the printing speed.

Set the original after correction fluid and ink have completely dried. Not taking this precaution could mark the exposure glass (contact glass) and cause marks to be printed.

Basically, set originals as shown below.

When you have an optional memory board and the original is set in a different direction from the print paper, the machine automatically rotates the original image by 90° to match the print paper direction.

default, when one sheet of paper is fed the drum rotates once. However, you can select the number of rotations of the drum. This gives you the chance to remove prints one by one from the paper delivery tray or insert one sheet of paper between two prints. If you use this function, you can also use paper longer than 432 mm, 17.0" in spite of the maximum length limitations of paper.

Note

Two rotations while one sheet of

❒

paper is fed is selected as a default. You can change this default setting with the user tools. See “No. of Skip Feed” in ⇒ P.139 “4. Mode Set- ting”.

The maximum length of paper in

❒

Skip Feed mode is 460 mm, 18.1". When you use paper longer than

432 mm, 17.0", completed prints will not be delivered to the paper delivery tray properly, so lower the end plate and receive completed prints by hand.

OPERATION

Quality Start Mode— Regaining The Image Density When The Ink On The Drum Dries

If the machine is not used for a long period of time or you change the color drum unit, the ink on the drum might dry causing print quality to deteriorate. To solve this problem, you can have the machine carry out a few idle spins of the drum before a print run. This will restore image quality and save you having to make a repeat print run.

You can use this feature in two ways:

❖❖❖❖

Manual Quality Start

Choose Quality Start for the next print run manually using the

Quality Start

{

❖❖❖❖

Auto Quality Start

key.

}

Have the machine check automatically how long ago the machine was used before each print run. If the machine has not been used for a long time, Quality Start will be used for the print job. By default, Auto Quality Start mode is on. You can turn it off with the user tools. See “Setting Q. start” in ⇒ P.139 “4. Mode Setting”.

Note

You can change the number of

❒

spins in Manual Quality Start mode with the user tools. See “Idling for Q.start” in ⇒ P.139 “4. Mode Setting”.

You can change the number of

❒

spins after the fixed time period has passed in Auto Quality Start mode with the user tools. See “No. of Q.start” in ⇒ P.139 “4. Mode Set- ting”.
