This copier has three exposure modes to choose from — AUTOMATIC
( ), MANUAL ( ), and PHOTO ( ).
Automatic exposure is the standard initial setting for this copier. In this mode, the characteristics of the original are “read” by the exposure system and adjustments are automatically made. This optimizes the contrast of the copied images by reducing the effect of colored or shaded background areas. See page 28 to adjust the automatic exposure level.
Adjust the original guides to the size of the originals.

NORMAL COPYING

This copier has two document input stations — a single pass feeder (SPF) for automatic document feeding and an original table for manual handling of bound documents. The SPF is designed to hold up to 30 originals measuring from 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" to 11" x 17" and in the weight range of 15 to 24 lbs.

Before loading originals into the SPF, be sure to remove any staples or paper clips from them.

Damaged or crumpled originals may misfeed in the SPF. It is recommended that these originals be copied from the original table.

Special originals such as transparency film and tracing paper should not be fed from the SPF, but should be placed directly on the original table.

Image loss (max. 5/32" (4 mm)) can occur at the leading edge of the copies. It can be 15/64" (6 mm) at the trailing edge of the copies which are made using the SPF. Also image loss (max. 5/32" (4 mm) in total) can occur along the other edges of the copies.
