Using the SPF/RSPF

The SPF/RSPF is designed to hold up to 30 originals measuring from 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" to 8-1/2" x 14" and weighting from 14 lbs. to 23.9 lbs. (52g/m2 to 90g/m2).

Before feeding originals in the original feeder tray, be sure to remove

any staples or paper clips from them.

Before placing curled or wavy originals into the original feeder tray, be sure to flatten them. If not, original misfeeds may result.

The SPF/RSPF ( ) indicator on the operation panel will light up. If this indicator does not light up, the originals are not properly set or the SPF/RSPF is not properly closed.

Badly damaged originals may misfeed in the SPF/RSPF. It is recommended that such originals be copied from the original table.

Special originals such as transparency film should not be fed through the SPF/RSPF, but should be placed directly on the original table.

Image loss (max. 5/32" (4mm)) can occur at the leading and trailing edges of the copies. Also image loss (max. 11/64" (4.5mm) in total) can occur along the other edges of the copies. It can be 15/64" (6mm) (max.) at the trailing edge of the second copy of two-sided copying.

To stop continuous copying using the SPF/RSPF, press the clear () key.

Copying using one-sided to one-sided mode (AL-1551CS): Ensure that no indicator is lit among the original to copy indicators.

Stream feeding mode

The stream feeding mode allows easy operation of continuous copying from the SPF/RSPF. If the stream feeding mode has been enabled using user program No.4, the SPF/RSPF ( ) indicator will blink approximately 5 seconds after the last original has been fed by the SPF/RSPF. While this indicator is blinking, any new originals placed in the original feeder tray will be fed and copied automatically. If the

stream feeding mode has been disabled, the start ( ) key must be pressed each time the originals are set even immediately after completion of a copy run from the SPF/RSPF. The default setting of the stream feeding mode is "ON". See "USER PROGRAMS" (p.55).
