Using The Spf/Radf - Sharp AR-281 Operation Manual

USING THE SPF/RADF

The SPF* (single pass feeder) and the RADF* (reversing
automatic document feeder) will handle multiple originals.
* The SPF is installed to the AR-281 and the RADF is
installed to the AR-286 and AR-336.
● Before loading originals into the document feeder
tray, be sure to remove any staples or paper clips
from them.
●
Damaged or crumpled originals or originals which
have been folded may misfeed in the SPF/RADF or
cause incorrect size detection. It is recommended
that these be copied from the document glass and the
copies be used as original documents.
●
When feeding originals which have closely spaced
binding holes punched along an edge, place the
originals so that the punched edge is positioned to the
right or along the side guides.
●
Special originals such as transparency film and tracing
paper should not be fed from the SPF/RADF, but
should be placed on the document glass.
Notes on the SPF (AR-281)
●
The SPF can handle a maximum of 30 originals of A5
to A4 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2" to 8-1/2" x 11") sizes and 15
originals of B4 to A3 (8-1/2" x 14" to 11" x 17") sizes.
●
2-sided to 1-sided copying and 2-sided to 2-sided
copying cannot be performed in this model.
●
The originals must be set face down in the document
feeder tray.
● Do not place different size originals in the document
feeder tray. Doing so may cause copying onto different
sizes or original misfeeds.
●
Duplex copying will not work when a non-standard
sized paper (or 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" paper) is used.
●
If the orientation of the originals does not match that
of the copy paper when both the originals and copy
paper are of standard sizes and the auto paper select
mode or automatic copy ratio select mode is on, the
image of the originals will be automatically rotated to
match the copy paper. However, if enlargement
copying onto a paper size larger than A4 (8-1/2" x 11")
is performed, the image will not be rotated.
● Image loss (max. 5mm (13/64")) can occur along the
leading and trailing edges of the copies. Also image
loss (max. 5mm (13/64") in total) can occur along the
other edges of the copies.
Notes on the RADF (AR-286 and AR-336)
●
The RADF can handle a maximum of 50 originals of
A5 to A4 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2" to 8-1/2" x 11") sizes and 30
originals of B4 to A3 (8-1/2" x 14" to 11" x 17") sizes.
●
2-sided to 1-sided copying and 2-sided to 2-sided
copying can be performed in these models.
●
The originals must be set face up in the document
feeder tray.
● Different size originals with the same width can be
placed in the document feeder tray and automatically
copied onto copy paper of their respective sizes.
The automatic copy ratio selection will not function in
this case.
Stream feeding mode
If the stream feeding mode has been enabled using a key operator
program, the message "NEWLY PLACED ORIGINALS WILL BE FED
AND COPIED AUTOMATICALLY." will appear and the original feed
indicator (AR-286/AR-336 only) will continue to blink for approximately
5 seconds after feeding of all originals is completed. While this
message is displayed, any new originals placed in the document
feeder tray will be fed and copied automatically.
