14.2 Mixed Paper Weight Job Productivity

The imageRUNNER ADVANCE 8500 III Series are capable of processing jobs that

contain paper with different paper weights. However, during the processing of jobs

with mixed paper weights, the machine adjusts its fixing temperature, which results

in a printing delay.

The imageRUNNER ADVANCE operator can maintain productivity by removing,

replacing, and refilling the paper and toner while the machine is running.

The paper trays can also be opened and refilled during operation; however, the

tray that is being used by the machine during production is locked. Once the job

completes, or the machine switches to another tray, the empty tray unlocks,

enabling the operator to prepare for the next job, and add more paper. No

productivity is affected and jobs finish faster.

Similar to the paper, the toner bottles can be removed and replaced while a job is

printing. The imageRUNNER ADVANCE 8500 III Series have a large toner

container, which makes it possible for the machine to run longer with no bottle. The

operator is not required to replace the toner bottle immediately after removing the

old bottle. Therefore, productivity and image quality are not affected, and jobs

finish in the same amount of time.
