MAIN FEATURES OF THE AR-S11

Sort bins
Copies are delivered to these bins.
Sorter release button (See page 6)
If a misfeed occurs in the 20-bin sorter, press this button to open the space between the sorter and the machine.
The 20-bin sorter allows you to sort copies into collated sets (sort mode), or group them by original page. When installed on an AR-C260 Series machine, sets of up to 20 full-colour copies can be made in sort mode.

CAUTIONS
Do not put pressure on the sorter or subject it to undue force (particularly the sort bins).
Do not place your hands on the sorter during copying because the sorter moves up and down.
NOTES
To install the 20-bin sorter, a duplex bypass/inverter unit and either a stand/1 x 500 sheet paper drawer, a stand/ 3 x 500 sheet paper drawer, or a duplex module/2 x 500 sheet paper drawer must also be installed.
In printer mode, output is only possible to the top bin.

NOTES
When copying in COVERS mode, take care that the number of copies in one set, including covers, does not exceed the maximum number of sheets that can be held in one bin as indicated above.
Copying normally stops when the number of sheets in each bin reaches the limit. This can be disabled with the "OVERRIDE SORTER BIN CAPACITY LIMIT" key operator program (page 7), allowing copying to continue even if the limit is exceeded. Note, however, that this may result in misfeeds or copies overflowing from the bin.
If the [INTERRUPT] key is touched during copying in sort mode or group mode (one-sided copying only), the mode will automatically switch to non-sort mode. The mode will switch back to the previous mode when the [INTERRUPT] key is touched once again to exit the interrupt state. (Interrupt is not possible during automatic two-sided copying (one-sided to two-sided or two-sided to two-sided)).
When colour copying is performed, much toner may be put on copy paper depending on the image. In this case, the copies may be curled.

METHODS OF SORTING COPIES

The 20-bin sorter has the following three modes.
In the diagrams, 5 copies each are made of originals 1, 2, and 3 in each of the modes.

■■■■ Sort mode

One set of copies is sorted into each bin.

■■■■ Group mode

One set of copies grouped by original page is delivered to each bin. The copies are output face down.
Original
5 sets of copies
(The copies are output face down in each bin.)
Original
5 copies per page
(The copies are output face down in each bin.)

■■■■ Non sort mode

All copies are delivered to the top bin (unsorted). Plain paper and Heavy Paper 1 (paper weight: 106 to 200 g/m paper types are output face up.
NOTE
Output to the 20-bin sorter in sort mode and group mode is only possible when the machine is in Copy mode.
2
or 28+ to 54 lbs.) are output face down. All other
