Copying from the Bypass Tray

Copying from the Bypass Tray

Use the bypass tray to copy onto special paper such as OHP transparen- cies, thick paper, thin paper, and copy paper that cannot be loaded in the paper trays.

Preparation

When copying from the bypass tray, select [1 Sided1 Sided] for copying in [Dup./Combine/Series]. You can change the initial settings. See p.143 “Duplex Mode Priority”.

Important

Paper larger than 458 mm, 18.1" in length is likely to jam, crease, or not feed in properly.

When copying onto special paper such as adhesive labels, always se- lect “Face up”. If you select “Face Down”, a paper misfeed may oc- cur. See p.156 “Eject Copy Face Up / Down in Bypass Mode”.

Do not use colour OHP transparen- cies that have easily melted coatings.

Note

The sizes that you can use in the bypass tray are as follows:

Metric

• Vertical: 100 – 305 mm

When copying on sizes other than those specified above, you need to specify the paper size. See p.26 “When copying onto standard size paper” and p.26 “When copying onto custom size paper”.

To copy onto OHP transparencies, paper thinner than 72 g/m2 (about 16 lb.), or paper of 127 g/m2 (about 34 lb.) or above, you need to speci- fy the paper type. See p.27 “When copying onto special paper”.

When printing on OHP transpar- encies, make sure you adjust the

guides in the tray to “A4K” or “81/2” ⋅ 11”K” and specify [Paper Size] in User Tools.

If you place originals on the expo- sure glass and want the copies to be delivered face down, select “Face down” for both ”Eject Copy Face Up/Down in Glass Mode” and “Eject Copy Face Up/Down in Bypass Mode” of User Tools. For details, see General Settings Guide.

If you select OHP transparencies or thick paper 2 in “Special paper”, you cannot have copies delivered face down.

If you select Tab Stock, you cannot have copies delivered face up.

If you use paper larger than 458 mm, 18.1" in size, you cannot have copies delivered face down.

The maximum number of sheets that you can load onto the bypass tray depends on paper type. The number should not exceed the up- per limit.

We recommend that you use a 4000ANSI lumen or brighter over- head projector to project OHP transparencies.
