(20cm)

(20cm)

A small amount of ozone is produced within the machine during operation. The emission level is insufficient to cause any health hazard.

Note:

The present recommended long term exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 ppm (0.2 mg/m3) calculated as an 8 hr. timeweighted average concentration.

However, since the small amount that is emitted may have an objectionable odor, it is advisable to place the machine in a ventilated area.

CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

Be careful in handling the machine as follows to maintain the performance of this machine.

Do not drop the machine, subject it to shock or strike it against any object.

Store spare toner cartridges in a cool dry place without removing from the package before use.

If they are exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat, poor copies may result.

Do not touch the photoconductive drum (green portion).

Scratches or smudges on the drum will cause dirty copies.

Safety precautions:

This Digital Copier is rated Class I and complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 of the CDRH standards. This means that the machine does not produce hazardous laser radiation. For your safety, observe the precautions below.

Do not remove the cabinet, operation panel or any other covers.

The machine’s exterior covers contain several safety interlock switches. Do not bypass any safety interlock by inserting wedges or other items into switch slots.

MAIN FEATURES

High-speed laser copying

First-copy time*1 at 300 dpi*2 is only 7.2 seconds.

Copying speed is 20/16 copies per minute at 600 dpi, This is ideal for business use and provides a big boost to

workplace productivity.

*1 First-Copy time may vary depending on the power-supply voltage, ambient temperature, and other operating conditions. *2 "dpi" ("dots per inch") are units that are used to measure resolution. Resolution indicates how much detail can be

reproduced in a printed or scanned image.

High-quality digital image

High-quality copies are possible in normal mode at 300 dpi and in photo mode.

In addition to automatic exposure adjustment, two original modes can be selected: "TEXT" for text-only originals, and "PHOTO" for photographs. The exposure can be adjusted to five levels in each mode.

The photo mode copying function allows clear copying of delicate halftone original images such as monochrome photos and color photos.

Enhanced copying features

Zoom copies can be made from 25% to 400% in 1% increments.

(When the SPF/RSPF is being used, the zoom copy ratio range is 50% to 200%.)

Continuous copying of up to 999 copies is possible. (Can be changed to a maximum of 99 copies in the user programs.)

The user programs allow customized machine settings and management. Access to the machine can be controlled by enabling audit mode.

The optional dual function board can be installed to enable use of Rotation copy and other convenient functions.

Check the following to make sure the machine is not in operation:

The START indicator is lit. (Initial state)

The POWER SAVE indicator is lit. ("Preheat mode" or "Auto power shut-off" mode)

• "Auto clear" is initially set to return the copy settings to the initial settings when the [CLEAR ALL] key () is Note pressed, and after one minute elapses after a copy job is finished. When "Auto clear" operates, all previous

settings are cleared. The setting for "Auto clear" can be changed in the user programs. (p.44)

The machine is initially set to automatically enter power save mode if not used for copying, printing, or scanning for a preset period of time. This setting can be changed in the user programs. (p.44)

Power Save Modes

The machine has two power save modes to reduce overall power consumption thereby reducing the cost of operation. In addition, these modes conserve natural resources and help reduce environmental pollution. The two power save modes are "Preheat mode" and "Auto power shut-off mode".

Preheat mode

This function automatically switches the machine to a low power consumption state if the set duration of time elapses without the machine being used when the power is on. The POWER SAVE indicator lights up, however, the keys on the operation panel can be used. Normal operation automatically resumes when a key on the operation panel is pressed, an original is placed, a print job is received, or scanning is begun from a computer.

Auto power shut-off mode

This function automatically switches the machine to a state that consumes even less power than preheat mode if the set duration of time elapses without the machine being used when the power is on. All lights except the POWER SAVE indicator and ON LINE indicator go off. To resume normal operation, press the [START] key ( ). Normal operation also resumes automatically when a print job is received or scanning is begun from a computer. While in auto power shut-off mode, no keys (except the [START] key ( )) can be used.

Note The preheat activation time and the "Auto power shut-off timer" can be changed using user programs. It is suggested that you set times that are appropriate for your usage of the machine. (p.44)

Initial settings

The machine assumes the initial settings when it is first turned on, when the [CLEAR ALL] key () is pressed, and approximately one minute after the last copy is made in any mode.

Copy ratio: 100%, Exposure: Automatic

Copy quantity: 0, All special copier modes: Off

Auto paper selection: On, Paper feed station: The tray selected in the "Default tray setting" in the user programs.(p.46)

AUTOMATIC TWO-SIDED COPYING

(AR-M205 only)

On models that support automatic two-sided copying, two originals placed on the document glass can be copied onto each side of a single sheet of paper. In addition, an RSPF can be used to copy two originals onto one sheet of paper, or one two-sided original onto two sheets of paper, or one two-sided original onto each side of one sheet of paper.

When performing automatic two-sided copying of a one-sided original, or one-sided copying of a two-sided original, the image on the back can be rotated 180 degrees to reverse the top and bottom (Image rotation in duplex copying). To rotate the image 180 degrees, enable the setting as explained in "IMAGE ROTATION IN DUPLEX COPYING" (p.29) or in the user programs (p.44), and then follow the steps below. In particular, when a one-sided "vertical (portrait) original" is placed in a horizontal orientation (8-1/2" x 14" or 11" x 17" size) for two-sided copying, the top and bottom of the images on the front and back of the paper will be reversed, and thus this function can be conveniently used to make the top and bottom of the images agree.
