Copying

down on the scanner glass.
For details about loading an original, see page 5.1.
2If you want to customize the copy settings including darkness,
original type, the number of copies, and copy size, by using the
control panel buttons, see the next section.
If necessary, you can use special copy features, such as poster
copying, 2- or 4-up copying. See page 6.2.
3Press Start to begin copying.
Note
You can cancel the copy job during an operation. Press Stop/
Clear, and the copying will stop.

Changing the settings for each copy

Your machine provides default settings for copying so that you can
quickly and easily make a copy. However, if you want to change the
options for each copy, use the copy function buttons on the control panel.
Note
If you press Stop/Clear while setting the copy options, all of the
options you have set for the current copy job will be canceled
and returned to their default status. Or, they will automatically
return to their default status after the machine completes the
copy in progress.

Darkness

If you have an original containing faint markings and dark images, you
can adjust the brightness to make a copy that is easier to read.

the button, the following modes are available:

the document type for the current copy job.
To select the document type, press Original Type. Each time you press
the button, the following modes are available:
