ELECTRONIC SORTING KIT (AR-EB3)

Sort/group

If an optional electronic sorting kit is installed, the copier will have two sorter modes for different copying jobs: one sorts copies into sets matching the sequence of the originals and the second groups copies by originals.

The sort/group feature cannot be used with the dual page copy feature.

To change the SORT/GROUP mode, press the SORT/GROUP ( / ) key to select the desired mode.

The capacity of the paper output tray is 250 sheets (150 sheets if an optional job separator tray kit (AR-TR2) is installed). When the number of copies output reaches this limit in a

sort or a group copy run, copying will stop, the output tray full () indicator will light and the START key () indicator will blink.

Remove the copies from the paper output tray and press the START ( ) key to resume copying.

Group mode

All copies of the same originals will be grouped in the paper output tray.

Offset stack

If the offset stack mode is enabled using user program No. 19, each copy will be offset by approximately 25 mm (1 inch). When copying in the sort mode, each collated set of copies will be stacked offset from the previous set. When copying in the group mode, copies will be offset and stacked in groups of multiple copies from the same original.

If the offset stack mode is disabled, copies will not be offset.

The offset stack mode is enabled in the factory default setting.
