OPERATION

Originals

Under the following conditions, the machine might not detect the original on the exposure glass. If you press the will start making a master anyway.
When you set a dark original on the exposure glass.
When the original is not centered according to the size marks on the left
scale.
If you do not open the platen cover at an angle of more than 25 degrees with the exposure glass when you replace originals.
The maximum original size you can set on the exposure glass is 307 x 432 mm, 12" x 17".
If you use paste-up originals, make sure the pasted parts hold firmly to the base sheet. If the thickness of the paste-up original is more than 0.2 mm, 2/250" and the space between the pasted parts is less than 2 mm, 2/25", a shadow might appear on the 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 raise the printing speed.
The first 5 mm, 0.2" of the leading edge and the last 3 mm, 0.12" of the trailing edge cannot be printed. Make sure the leading edge margin is at least 5 mm, 0.2" and the trailing edge margin is at least 3 mm, 0.12".

Erasing Center And Edge Margins

When printing from thick books, or similar originals, the binding margin at the center and the edges might appear on prints. To prevent this, follow the steps on th e next page.
The 1 mm, 0.02" margins on all four sides of the original will be erased. The width of the margins will change depending on the reduction ratios.
Shadows near the book edge might not be erased completely.
If the shape of the originals are as below, shadows might appear on the prints. In this case, make a master with the platen cover closed.
If there is a line or solid image on the margin and you erase the center and the edges, the image might be erased as shown below. In this case, use the function described on page 31.

Page 31
OPERATION
If you do not press hard on the book while it is scanned, the margin at the center might not be erased completely.
If the machine is installed under a strong light, such as a fluorescent light, a shadow might appear on the prints. In this case, close the platen cover a lit­tle to block the light or move the machine.
If you set the original on the exposure glass as shown below, the screened image below will not be printed. Lines or solid images that run from the screened image below onto the original may also not be printed.
