Combined Function Operations

Multi-Access

You can carry out another job using a different function while the current job is being performed. Performing multiple functions simultaneously like this is called “Multi-accessing”.

This allows you to handle jobs efficiently, regardless of how the machine is being

used. For example:

 

You can make copies while receiving printer data.

While printing, you can make operations for copying.

Note

See p.23 “Print Priority” for setting function priority. As default, [Display mode] is set to first priority.

-Function compatibility

The chart shows function compatibility when print priority is set to “ Interleave ”. See p.23 “Print Priority”.

b…means that these functions can be used together.

$…means that you can interrupt the current job with Function keys to proceed to a subsequent job.

1…means that another job will automatically start after the current job is fin- ished.

⋅…means that you must manually start another job after the current job is finished (i.e., these functions cannot be used together).

*1 You can scan a document once the preceding job documents are all scanned.
