Copying a document that contains mixed paper sizes

Use the ADF to copy an original document that contains mixed paper sizes. Depending on the paper sizes loaded and the “Copy to” and “Copy from” settings, each copy is either printed on mixed paper sizes (Example 1) or scaled to fit a single paper size (Example 2).

Example 1: Copying to mixed paper sizes

The printer has two paper trays, one tray loaded with letter-size paper and the other with legal-size paper. A document that contains letter- and legal-size pages needs to be copied.

1Load an original document faceup, short-edge first into the ADF or facedown on the scanner glass.

Note: Do not load postcards, photos, small items, transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (such as magazine clippings) into the ADF. Place these items on the scanner glass.

2If you are loading a document into the ADF, adjust the paper guides.

3On the home screen, touch Copy.

4Touch Copy from, and then touch Mixed Sizes.

5Touch Copy to, and then touch Auto Size Match.

6Touch Copy It.

The scanner identifies the mixed paper sizes as they scan. Copies are printed on mixed paper sizes corresponding to the paper sizes of the original document.

Example 2: Copying to a single paper size

The printer has one paper tray, loaded with letter-size paper. A document that contains letter- and legal-size pages needs to be copied.

1Load an original document faceup, short-edge first into the ADF or facedown on the scanner glass.

Note: Do not load postcards, photos, small items, transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (such as magazine clippings) into the ADF. Place these items on the scanner glass.

2If you are loading a document into the ADF, adjust the paper guides.

4Touch Copy from, and then touch Mixed Letter/Legal.

5Touch Copy to, and then touch Letter.

6Touch Copy It.

The scanner identifies the mixed paper sizes as they scan and then scales the legal-size pages to print on letter-size paper.
