Using The Radf - Sharp AR-287 Operation Manual

USING THE RADF

The RADF (reversing automatic document feeder) will
handle multiple originals.
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 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 RADF, but should be
placed on the document glass.
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 8-1/2" x 11" is
performed, the image will not be rotated.
Image loss (max. 13/64" (5 mm)) can occur along the
leading and trailing edges of the copies. Also image
loss (max. 13/64" (5 mm) in total) can occur along the
other edges of the copies.
The RADF can handle a maximum of 50 originals of
5-1/2" x 8-1/2" to 8-1/2" x 11" sizes and 30 originals
of 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 "
indicator 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.
