Acceptable originals
When the RADF (Reversing Automatic Document Feeder) is used, 2-sided originals can be automatically scanned one
sheet after another. When the original glass is used, originals such as OHP films, tracing paper, booklet or 3-dimensional
objects, that cannot be placed on the RADF can be scanned, as well as plain paper.

y Automatic size detection does not work properly when A/B format originals are used in equipment for North
America. It does not work properly when LT format originals are used in equipment other than that for North
America.
y Automatic size detection does not work properly when K format paper is used for printing. (K format is a standard
paper size in China.)
y Do not place any heavy objects (4 kg (9 lb.) or over) on the original glass and do not press on it with force.
y Be sure to place ST-size or A5-size originals in a landscape direction when using the RADF.
Maximum number of sheets for one scanning
A maximum of 2000 sheets can be scanned per 1 copy job or up until the embedded memory becomes full. When the
number of scanned sheets has exceeded the above limit, this equipment stops scanning and the message below appears.
If you want to print out the data scanned up until then, press [YES]. If you want to delete them, press [NO].

2.HOW TO MAKE COPIES
Placing originals on the original glass
The original glass can be used for originals such as OHP films or tracing paper, as well as plain paper, that cannot be
placed on the RADF.
Do not place any heavy objects (4 kg (9 lb.) or over) on the original glass and do not press on it with force.
Breaking the glass could injure you.
Raise the RADF.
1
Raise it 60 degrees or more so that the size of the original can be detected correctly.
Place the original with its face down on the original
2
glass and align it against the left rear corner of the
glass.
When you copy highly transparent originals
When you copy highly transparent originals such as OHP films or
tracing paper, place a blank sheet, which is the same size as the
original or larger, over the original.
Lower the RADF carefully.

Book-type originals
You can place book-type originals on the original glass.
Do not place any heavy objects (4 kg (9 lb.) or over) on the original glass and do not press on it with force.
Breaking the glass could injure you.
Raise the RADF.
1
Open the desired page of the original and place it with
2
its face down. Align it against the left rear corner of
the original glass.
When you make 2-sided copies from book-type originals in modes
such as book-type original to 2-sided copying or dual page copying,
align the center of the original on the yellow indicator line of the original
glass.
P.75 “Making a 2-sided copy from a book-type original”

Lower the RADF carefully.

y Do not lower the RADF forcibly when the original is very thick. There will be no problem in copying even if it
is not fully lowered.
y Do not look directly at the original glass because intensive light may escape during copying.

Precautions
Do not use the types of originals 1 to 8 shown below because such originals may cause misfeeding or damage to the
equipment.
1. Badly wrinkled, folded or curled originals
2. Originals with carbon paper
3. Taped, pasted or cut-out originals
4. Clipped or stapled originals
5. Originals with holes or tears
6. Damp originals
7. OHP films or tracing paper
8. Coated paper (with wax, etc.)
Use the types of originals 9 and 10 shown below with extra care.
9. Originals which resist sliding with the fingers, or surface-treated originals (The sheets of such originals may not be
separated.)

When black streaks appear
If the scanning area or the guide area is dirty, image trouble such as black streaks may occur on printouts. Weekly
cleaning of these areas is recommended. For cleaning, refer to the Quick Start Guide.

2 HOW TO MAKE COPIES
Continuous feed mode
The feeding mode is set at “continuous feed mode” by default. Once you set the originals and then press the [START]
button, they are scanned page by page continuously. It is useful when you want to copy more than one original at one
time.
Align all the originals.
1
Collate the originals in the order that you want them to be copied. The top sheet of the originals will be copied first.
Place the originals with their face up and align the
2
side guides to the original length.
y Regardless of their sizes, originals are acceptable up to 100
sheets (35 to 80 g/m
y For mixed-size originals, see the following page:
P.50 “Copying mixed-size originals in one operation”
For long originals
Pull out the original stopper so that the scanned original will not fall off.
After the original stopper was used, lift it slightly and push it in.
When there are too many originals to be scanned at one time, divide the originals into several sets before copying.
Place the first set of the originals and then press [CONTINUE] on the touch panel while the data of this set are being
scanned. When this scanning is finished, place the next set of the originals and press the [START] button on the
control panel.

Single feed mode
When the feeding mode is set at “single feed mode”, an original is fed automatically as it is placed on the RADF. It is useful
when you want to copy only 1 original sheet.
P.119 “ADF -> SADF”
Align the side guides to the original length.
1
Insert the original with its face up and straight along
2
the side guides.
The original is automatically pulled in and then the menu of step 3 will
be displayed on the touch panel.
Be sure to let go of the original when it starts being pulled.
If there is another original, insert it in the same way.
3
The original is pulled in whether or not you press [YES].
After all the originals are pulled in, press [FINISHED].
4
Even if you do not press [FINISHED], copying will start when the current operation is cleared by means of the
automatic function clear.
