Image Orientation Priority If Image Orientation Priority is set to ‘On’, the machine always copies an image in the same orientation as the original image. This is because the image on originals may be copied upside down, depending on the copy mode set.

Select [On] or [Off] ➞ press [OK]. The selected mode is set.
