While printing print data, you can make operations for copying.

Note

You can set the priority of functions on p.75 “Print Priority”. As default set- ting, the “Display Mode” is set to first priority.

When the optional Booklet Finisher, Finisher 3000M (50-Sheet Staples) or Fin- isher 3000B (100-Sheet Staples) is installed on the machine, you can specify the output tray to which documents are to be delivered. For more information about how to specify the output tray for each function, see the following de- scriptions:

p.77 “Output: Copier”

p.77 “Output: Document Server”

p.78 “Output: Printer”
