MAKING COPIES

 

This chapter explains basic and other copying functions.

The unit is equipped with a one-page memory buffer. This memory allows the unit to scan an original once only and make up to 99 copies. This feature improves workflow, reduces operation noise from the copier, and provides higher reliability by reducing wear and tear on the scanning mechanism.

If the unit does not function properly during use, or if a function cannot be used, see "TROUBLESHOOTING THE UNIT" (p.30).
