Product Overview

Important • If you use unsuitable paper for the media setting you specified, or inappropriate paper is set

in the paper tray, it may result in paper jams. Select the correct media size, type, and tray to get the best print results.

Note • G.S.M. (g/m

meter, which does not depend on the number of sheets in the ream.

) is a measure of a substance/weight of a paper expressed in grams per square

Handling and Storing Paper Media

Handling Paper Media

Do not use paper media that have been folded, creased, or heavily curled. It may result in paper jams.

Storing Paper Media

The optimum environment to store paper media is a humidity of 40 to 45 %. Keep the following points in mind when storing paper media:

Moisture is not good for paper media. For storage, wrap the paper media in our company's wrapping paper and store it in a comparatively dry place. Tracing paper especially should be put in a plastic or moisture-proof bag that contains desicant.

When the machine is not used for a long period of time, remove the media and store it accordingly.

Step 3 Scanning the Original

To scan the original, follow the procedure below.

Important • The original may jam if pressure is applied to the top of the original or it is pulled during

scanning.

• When originals that contain holes are loaded, make sure that the area with the holes is fed in last, because the original may jam if the area with the holes is fed in first.

1 Align the original with the original guide face

down, and insert the lead edge of the original into the machine until it stops feeding. Then the machine starts scanning automatically.

• If the scan start mode has been set to [Manual Start], press the <Start> button.

Important • Hold the original down flat with two hands (one

on either side of the arrow in the graphic) while it is being fed in to the starting position (to avoid minor "crinkles" that can cause dark areas in the copy). If you release the original before it stops feeding, it may result in a jam.

Auto Rotate Feature (90 Degree Auto Rotate)

The Auto Rotate feature that is built in to the Copier/Printer model will take images that are scanned in as "Portrait" and automatically convert them to "Landscape" - under certain conditions.

Note • This feature only works when going from "Portrait" to "Landscape" (when you are also in

Auto mode or you have selected a standard size). It does not work in the opposite direction

- so it will not

enable you to go from "Landscape" to "Portrait."

1 Select the [Basic Copy] tab.

2 Select [Auto Select] or select one of the

standard sizes.

3 Feed the original into the scanner in portrait

orientation.

4 The copy will be printed in landscape

orientation.

Limitations to the Auto Rotate feature:

* Printing cannot be set to come from a specific roll, or the feature will not work. So you cannot select Roll 1, Roll 2, or Manual Feed and still have the feature work.

* The code that you enter for the orientation of the original (input detection) under the Detail Settings must be Auto (0) or Portrait (1) but not Landscape (2) to work correctly.
