Using the RSPF/SPF

The RSPF/SPF is designed to hold up to 30 originals measuring from 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" to 8-1/2" x 14" and weighting from 14 lbs. to 23.9 lbs.

Before feeding originals in the original feeder tray, be sure to remove

 

any staples or paper clips from them.

 

Before placing curled or wavy originals into the original feeder tray, be

 

 

sure to flatten them. If not, original misfeeds may result.

 

The RSPF/SPF ( ) indicator on the operation panel will light up. If

 

 

this indicator does not light up, the originals are not properly set or the

 

 

RSPF/SPF is not properly closed.

 

Badly damaged originals may misfeed in the RSPF/SPF. It is

 

 

recommended that such originals be copied from the original table.

3

Special originals such as transparency film should not be fed through

 

the RSPF/SPF, but should be placed directly on the original table.

Image loss (max. 5/32") can occur at the leading and trailing edges of

 

the copies. Also image loss (max. 11/64" in total) can occur along the

 

 

other edges of the copies. It can be 15/64" (max.) at the trailing edge

 

 

of the second copy of two-sided copying.

 

To stop continuous copying using the RSPF/SPF, press the clear

 

 

( ) key.

 

Copying using one-sided to one-sided mode (AR-157E):

 

 

Ensure that no indicator is lit among the original to copy indicators.

Make sure that no original is left on the original table.

Adjust the original guides to the size of originals.

Set the originals face up in the

original feeder tray.

 

Stream feeding mode

The stream feeding mode allows easy operation of continuous copying from the RSPF/SPF. If the stream feeding mode has been enabled using user program No.4, the RSPF/SPF ( ) indicator will blink approximately 5 seconds after the last original has been fed by the RSPF/SPF. While this indicator is blinking, any new originals placed in the original feeder tray will be fed and copied automatically. If the stream feeding mode has been disabled, the start ( ) key must be pressed each time the originals are set even immediately after completion of a copy run from the RSPF/SPF. The default setting of the stream feeding mode is "ON". See "USER PROGRAMS" (p.23).
