Originals set in the automatic document feeder will be automatically fed and copied sequentially. The automatic document feeder will simultaneously scan both sides of originals when two-sided to one-sided or two-

sided to two-sided copying is being done.

Acceptable originals

A stack of up to 50 original sheets (30 original sheets*1 for 8-1/2" x 14" (B4) or larger) of the same size paper can be set in the document feeder tra y provided the stac k height is within the limit sho wn belo w. A stack of up to 30 mixed size originals can be set if the width of the originals is the same and the stack height is within the limit shown below . In this case , howe ve r, stapling and duple x will not function and some special functions ma y not give the expected result. *1 For paper heavier than 28 lbs. (105 g/m2), only a stack of up to 15 sheets can be set. Setting 16 or more sheets may

cause incorrect scanning of original and scanned image may become expanded compared with original itself.

Notes on use of the automatic document feeder

●

Use originals within the specified size and weight ranges. Use of originals out of the specified range may cause an original misfeed.

●

Before loading originals into the document feeder tr a y, be sure to remove an y staples or paper clips.

●

If originals have damp spots from correction fluid, ink or glue from pasteups, be sure they are dried before they are fed. If not, the interior of the document feeder or the document glass may be soiled.

●

To prevent incorrect original size detection, original misf eeds or smudges on copies, use the f ollowing as a guide for feeding originals.

Transparency film, tracing paper , carbon paper , thermal paper or originals printed with thermal transfer ink ribbon should not be fed through the document f eeder . Originals to be fed through the feeder should not be damaged, crumpled or folded or have loosely pasted paper on them or cutouts in them. Originals with multiple punched holes other than two-hole or three-hole punched paper may not f eed correctly .

●

When using originals with two or three holes, place them so that the punched edge is at a position other than the feed slot.

Normally the number of originals is further limited by the number of originals that can be set into the document feeder tray*2. The job build function allows scanning and copying of up to 100 originals.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Whenever the machine stops or operation is not possible, check the operation panel display for messages. In most cases, these messages will give sufficient information to return the machine to an operating condition. In cases where this information is not enough, check the list below for more inf ormation. This section describes problems concerning copier features. F or troubleshooting specific problems related to printer , facsimile , or network scanner features, see the separate manuals provided for them. For problems related to other peripheral devices, see chapter 5 of the “Operation manual (for printer operation and general information)”.

Problem

Machine does not operate.

Copies are too dark or too light.

Smudges appear on copies.

Image cannot be rotated.

Part of original image is not copied.

Blank copies

Order of copies incorrect

Job cancelation needed

Scanning of originals is incomplete.

Check Solution or cause

●

Is the START key indicator off?

●

Is the original image too dark or too light?

●

Is the exposure mode set to A UTO?

●

Is the exposure mode set to PHO TO?

●

●

Original smudged or blotchy?

●

Is the auto paper select or auto image function set?

●

Is the original positioned correctly?

●

●

Is the original placed face down?

●

Is the order of originals correct?

●

Is a message requesting cancelation of job displayed?

●

Is a message indicating memory is full displayed?

If the indicator is not on, the machine may be warming up. Warm-up should be completed in approximately 80 seconds.

Adjust the exposure in the manual mode. (See page

15.) The exposure level in the AUTO mode can be

adjusted using a key operator program. Contact your key operator . (See page 33.)

Cancel the PHOT O exposure mode. (See page 15.) Clean regularly . (See page 4-12 of the “Operation

manual (for printer operation and general information)”.)

Clean the original scanning window. (See page 4-12 of the “Operation manual (for printer operation and general information)”.)

Use a clean original. Rotation copy functions only if the machine is either

in the auto paper select mode or in the auto image mode. (See pages 8 and 16.)

Set the original properly . (page 7) Use the auto image function to select the

appropriate copy ratio based on the original and copy sizes. (See page 16.)

Place the original face down in the document feeder tray or on the document glass. (See page 7.)

When using the document glass, set the originals from the first page one sheet at a time.

When using the automatic document feeder, set the originals with the first page down.

Press the [CA] (clear all) key to cancel the current job.

If the data amount exceeds the limit when using the pamphlet copy or multi shot copy which requires scanning of all originals, scanning will be canceled and copying will not be performed. If you install a hard disk drive, the storage capacity will increase.

KEY OPERA T OR PROGRAMS

Initial status settings

The copier settings will be reset when the main switch is turned off, when the [CA] key is pressed or when the auto clear interval has elapsed. Use this program to establish new initial settings or to return the initial settings to the factory default settings. Paper tray, exposure mode, cop y ratio, duple x mode, and output mode default settings can be made.

NOTE

If a duplex mode other than 1-sided to 1-sided is set as the default and either the duplex or scanner mode is disabled*, the default will change to the 1-sided to 1-sided mode. * Disable duplex unit (page 7-10 of the “Operation manual

(for printer operation and general information)”)

* Disabling of document feeder (page 34)

Exposure adjustment

Use this program to lighten or darken copies in the automatic exposure mode. The factory setting is “5”. “1” indicates lighter density and “9” indicates darker density on the touch panel.

Rotation copy setting

If this program is set, the image of originals will rotate when the orientation of the originals does not match that of the copy paper . (Rotation copy will function only if the auto paper select or auto image mode has been selected.)

Auto paper selection setting

Use this program to set the paper type* for the auto paper select mode to “Plain paper” or “Plain paper and recycle paper”. * Paper type specified in Tra y setting of the custom

setting function (page 1-20 of “Operation manual (for printer operation and general information)”)

600dpi x 600dpi scanning mode

Use this program to change the original scanning resolution of the automatic document feeder from 600 x 300 dpi to 600 x 600 dpi. If this mode is set, the copy quality for fine characters and fine lines will be improved but the original scanning speed will be slower.

NOTE

If the original scanning speed is more important than higher resolution, do not set this program.

Quick scan from document glass

Use this program to change the original scanning resolution on the document glass from 600 x 600dpi to 600 x 300 dpi. If you set this program, the first copy time will be shorter but the copy image will become a little more coarse.

NOTE

If the copy image quality is more important than first copy time, do not set this program.

NOTE

For copying from 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 or A5 size originals onto 51/2 x 8-1/2R or A5R paper, this program must be set.
