Non-Recommended Paper Types
Do not use the following types of paper:
• Ink-jet printer paper
• Bent, folded, or creased paper
• Curled or twisted paper
• Torn paper
• Wrinkled paper

Supported Paper
Draft 2016/05/27
• Damp paper
• Dirty or damaged paper
• Paper that is dry enough to emit static electricity
• Paper that has already been printed onto, except a preprinted letterhead paper.
Malfunctions are especially likely when using paper printed on by other than a laser printer
(e.g.monochrome and color copiers, ink-jet printers, etc.)
• Special paper, such as thermal paper and carbon paper
• Paper weighing heavier or lighter than the limit
• Paper with windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing
• Adhesive label paper on which glue or base paper is exposed
• Paper with clips or staples
• When loading paper, take care not to touch the surface of the paper.
• Even if paper is adequate for the machine, poorly stored paper can cause paper misfeeds, print
quality degradation, or malfunctions.
Paper Storage
• Store paper appropriately. If the paper is stored incorrectly, misfeeds, lower printing quality, or
malfunctions may result.
When storing paper:
• Do not store paper in a humid place.
• Do not store paper in direct sunlight.
• Do not stand paper on its edge.
• Store any leftover paper in a wrapping or box supplied with the paper.
Print Area
The diagram below shows the area of the paper that the machine can print on.

Placing Originals
This section describes the types of originals you can set and how to place them.
Placing Originals on the Exposure Glass
This section describes the procedure for placing originals on the exposure glass and in the ADF.
• Do not place originals before any correction fluid and toner has completely dried. Doing so may
make marks on the exposure glass that will appear on copies.
• The original in the ADF takes precedence over the original on the exposure glass if you place
originals both in the ADF and on the exposure glass.
• Because colors made by marker or highlighter pen on originals are difficult to reproduce, they
might not appear on copies.
1. Lift the ADF.
Be careful not to hold the input tray when lifting the ADF, for the tray might be damaged.
2. Place the original face down on the exposure glass. The original should be aligned to the
rear left corner.
3. Lower the ADF.
Hold down the ADF with your hands when using thick, folded, or bound originals and the ADF
cannot be lowered completely.
Placing Originals in the Auto Document Feeder
By using the ADF, you can scan multiple pages at once.

Placing Originals
Draft 2016/05/27
• Do not place different size originals in the ADF at once.
• Straighten curls in the originals before placing them in the ADF.
• To prevent multiple sheets from being fed at once, fan the pages of your original before placing
them in the ADF.
• Place the original squarely.
1. Open the cover of the input tray for the ADF and adjust the guides according to the size of
the original.
2. Place the aligned originals face up in the ADF. The last page should be on the bottom.
• When placing originals longer than A4, pull out the ADF tray's extenders.
About Originals

gray or black lines appearing on prints:
• Originals larger or heavier than recommended

Configuring Option Settings and Paper Settings
for the Printer
This section explains how to configure settings on the printer driver for the options installed on the
machine and for the paper settings for each tray.
When bidirectional communication works correctly, your computer obtains information about option,
paper size and paper feed direction settings from the machine automatically. Bidirectional
communication also allows you to monitor machine status.
To support bidirectional communication, the following conditions must be met:
Operating system
Windows Vista/7/8/8.1/10, Windows Server 2003/2003
R2/2008/2008R2/2012/2012R2
When connected with the network
• The Standard TCP/IP port must be used.
• In addition to the above, one of the following conditions must also be met:
• The TCP/IP protocol or the IPP protocol is used. (When using the IPP protocol, the IPP
port name must include the IP address.)
When connected with USB
• The machine must be connected to the computer's USB port using the USB interface cable.
• The computer must support bidirectional communication.
• [Enable bidirectional support] must be selected, and [Enable printer pooling] must not be
selected on the [Ports] tab with the printer driver.
When Using Windows
This section describes how to set up option and setting of paper size for each tray on your computer
manually.
The following procedure is explained using Windows 7 as an example.
• Manage Printers permission is required to change the printer properties. Log on as an
Administrators group member.
1. On the [Start] menu, select [Devices and Printers].
2. Right-click the machine's icon, and then click [Printer properties].
3. Click the [Accessories] tab.
4. Select options installed from the [Options] area, and then make the necessary settings.

• If a paper jam occurs, printing stops after the current page has been printed out. After the jammed
paper is removed, printing restarts from the jammed page automatically.
• If a scanning jam occurs in the ADF, copying is canceled immediately. In this case, copy the
originals again starting from the jammed page. For the direction to remove the jammed paper, see
page 273 "Clearing Misfeeds".
Canceling a Copy
While scanning the original
If copying is canceled while the machine is scanning the original, copying is cancelled immediately
