AUTOMATIC TWO-SIDED COPYING

(AR-M205 only)

On models that support automatic two-sided copying, two originals placed on the document glass can be copied onto each side of a single sheet of paper. In addition, an RSPF can be used to copy two originals onto one sheet of paper, or one two-sided original onto two sheets of paper, or one two-sided original onto each side of one sheet of paper.

•When performing automatic two-sided copying of a one-sided original, or one-sided copying of a two-sided original, the image on the back can be rotated 180 degrees to reverse the top and bottom (Image rotation in duplex copying). To rotate the image 180 degrees, enable the setting as explained in "IMAGE ROTATION IN DUPLEX COPYING" (p.29) or in the user programs (p.44), and then follow the steps below. In particular, when a one-sided "vertical (portrait) original" is placed in a horizontal orientation (8-1/2" x 14" or 11" x 17" size) for two-sided copying, the top and bottom of the images on the front and back of the paper will be reversed, and thus this function can be conveniently used to make the top and bottom of the images agree.
