Page 5: General Safety Information
While copying, do not unplug the power cord. Keep corrosive liquids, such as acid, off the machine. Do not allow paper clips, staples, or other small metallic objects to fall inside the machine. General Safety Information Always turn the copier off when you’ve finished copying for the day, but leave it plugged in.
Page 6 COPYING Making One Copy To make a copy, you should first open the lower table of the copier (the copy table); then pull out the original guides at the exit; place the copy paper on the copy table; and last of all set the original on the top table of the copier (the original table).
Page 7 COPYING Making One Copy 5. Wait until the Set Paper indicator lights up on the operation panel. 6. Place the sheet of copy paper on the copy table. Slide the paper straight into the copier until it stops. The copier will soon pull it in. Once the paper is set, the beeper will sound.
Page 8 Making One Copy COPYING 9. The original comes out from the opening just under the original ¬ table . The copy is delivered from the slot on top of the copier ¬ About the original guides... The original guides you pulled out at the exit keep the original from going into the copy paper entrance.
Page 9 COPYING Copying With The Roll Feeder Copying With The Roll Feeder To make a copy using the roll feeder option, you do not need to set pa- per on the copy table; the paper will be fed to the copier from the roll feeder.
Page 10 Copying With The Roll Feeder COPYING 3. When the RF Select indicator lights up on the panel, press the RF Select key. The roll feeder starts. Once the copier has set the copy paper, the beeper will sound. 4. Wait until the Set Original indi- cator lights up on the operation panel.
Page 11 COPYING Making Several Copies Of The Same Original Making Several Copies Of The Same Original To make more than one copy of the same original, you have to reload the original after each copy. If you’re not using the roll feeder option, you also have to set the copy paper for each copy.
Page 12 Making Copies Darker Or Lighter COPYING Making Copies Darker Or Lighter To make darker or lighter copies, you should change the copier’s den- sity setting. There are 14 density levels: the standard density level, three darker levels, and 10 lighter levels. Set the density with the Lighter and Darker keys ( &...
Page 13 COPYING Leaving A Blank Margin At The Leading Edge Leaving A Blank Margin At The Leading Edge You can create a blank margin at the top of the copy (fig. a, the leading edge), or have the leading edge of the image bleed off the copy (fig. b). The copier does this by shifting the entire image backward or forward according to the margin you set.

Page 15 COPYING Copying Only A Selected Portion Of The Original Copying Only A Selected Portion Of The Original You can copy a portion of the original instead of the entire original. Press and hold the Function Select key for at least three seconds to tell the copier to copy only a portion of the original.
Page 16 Copying Only A Selected Portion Of The Original COPYING Example: copying the middle band of an A2 poster Suppose you are copying an A2 size poster (about 17" x 22") of a sea- shell, as shown on the previous page, and you want to copy only the middle portion of the shell.
Page 17 COPYING Using The Rear Table—Originals That Can’t Be Bent Using The Rear Table—Originals That Can’t Be Bent You can feed originals from the rear of the copier. This way, the original will not turn inside the machine, but will travel straight through. Use the rear table to copy originals that can’t or shouldn’t be bent.
Page 18 Copying To Different Media COPYING Copying To Different Media If you copy to film or vellum (translucent or tracing paper) you need to set the copy media, otherwise the copy might come out creased or wavy. To make a copy, the copier deposits a layer of black resin powder, called toner, on the copy paper.
Page 19 COPYING Programming Settings You Often Use Programming Settings You Often Use There are two ways of programming settings you often use. First, you can link a collection of settings to the Program key ; this way the copier will recall your settings whenever you press that key. Second, you can change the copier’s default settings so that those you want appear every time you turn the copier on or press the Clear Modes key.
Page 20 Programming Settings You Often Use COPYING 4. To retrieve the programmed set- tings, press the Program key be- fore copying. 2–Changing The Copier’s Default Settings You might find that you never use the copier’s default settings, that you always set a lead margin of 10 or 20 mm, or that you always use the roll feeder with a particular length of paper.
Page 21: What Your Service Representative Can Change
COPYING What Your Service Representative Can Change 3. Input the settings you want. 4. Turn off the main switch. The next time you turn the copier on or press the Clear Modes key, the settings you programmed in step 3 will be in effect.

If Jams Occur TROUBLESHOOTING If Jams Occur If the original is jammed in the feed-in slot Very gently pull the original out of the feed-in slot. Be careful not to tear it. CAUTION: If the original sticks in the ma- chine, or if you don’t think you can remove it without tearing, remove the original from the...
Page 35 TROUBLESHOOTING If Jams Occur 3. Close the original table. Press firmly on both sides until it clicks into place. If sheet paper is jammed in the feed-in slot 1. Squeeze the locks on each side of the copier and lift the unit. 2.
Page 36 If Jams Occur TROUBLESHOOTING If sheet paper is jammed at the paper exit 1. Squeeze the locks on each side of the copier and lift the middle unit between the original table and the copy table. 2. Open the fusing unit cover. CAUTION: The fusing unit can be very hot.
Page 37 TROUBLESHOOTING If Jams Occur If roll paper jams If roll paper jams anywhere in the machine, you still might need to check everywhere to remove the entire length of paper. 1. Open the roll feeder top cover. 2. Slide the blade across. 3.
Page 38 If Jams Occur TROUBLESHOOTING 6. Open the fusing unit cover. CAUTION: The fusing unit can be very hot. Do not touch any parts under the fusing cover. If necessary, wait until the fusing unit has cooled down. 7. Slowly pull the paper out. If there are scraps left inside, open the inner cover, wait for the copier to cool, and remove the scraps.
Page 39 TROUBLESHOOTING Others Others If a puzzling or recurring problem occurs, check the following before calling a service representative. It’s also a good idea to check the Do’s and Don’ts section on page 36 to make sure the paper and originals match what the copier can handle.
Page 40 Others TROUBLESHOOTING Is the image skewed? Make sure to insert the paper and the original straight into the machine. If you have the original and copy guides (option), use them. White spots appear On the copy: try setting your copy paper with the other side fac- ing up.
Page 41 DO’S & DON’TS Copying Do not set more than one sheet of paper at a time on the copy paper table. Center your paper on the copy table using the size marks. Then slide the paper straight into the copier until it stops. When copying to a long sheet of paper, lightly hold the sheet as the copier pulls it in so that it goes in well.
Page 42 Others DO’S & DON’TS Paper Keep open reams of paper in the package and store as you would unopened packages. Avoid storing paper in humid areas. When it’s hot and humid, store paper in a vinyl bag. Do not use copy media made of a material other than paper, vellum, or film.
