What is Connect Copy?

Connect Copy is a feature that allows you to connect two machines together us- ing a cable. When you set up your copy job on one machine (the master unit), data is transferred to the other machine (the sub-unit) so that copies can be made on both machines simultaneously.

Connect Copy benefits

Connect Copy provides the following benefits:

❖High-speed copying for greater productivity

For large volume copy runs, two connected machines form a single system

that can complete the job in a shorter time. If two 70 copies/minute (A4K, 81/

2" × 11"Ksize) copiers are connected together, a 140 copies/minute (A4K, 81/ 2" × 11"Ksize) speed will be available.

❖Auto-backup system for less participation of operators

Even if one machine stops because of a paper jam, it has run out of toner, or run out of paper, the other machine will take over and finish the job automat- ically. If the stopped machine is recovered, the machines will allocate the job again and continue using Connect Copy to complete the job in a way that re- sults in maximum productivity.
