Using the SPF (AL-2040)

The SPF is designed to hold up to 50 originals measuring from A5 to A4 and weighting from 56g/m2 to 90g/m2.

•Before feeding originals in the document feeder tray, be sure to

remove any staples or paper clips from them.

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

•If the original is placed correctly in the SPF, the SPF indicator will light up. If the original is not placed correctly, the SPF indicator will not light. If the SPF is not closed correctly, the indicator will blink.

•Badly damaged originals may misfeed in the SPF. It is recommended that such originals be copied from the document glass.

•Special originals such as transparency film should not be fed through the SPF, but should be placed directly on the document glass.

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

•To stop continuous copying using the SPF, press the clear key.

•Copying using one-sided to one-sided mode:

Ensure that no indicator is lit among the original to copy indicators.
