Sharp AR-287 manual Using The Radf, Stream feeding mode

USING THE RADF

The RADF (reversing automatic document feeder) will handle multiple originals.

●Before loading originals into the document feeder tray, be sure to remove any staples or paper clips from them.

●Damaged or crumpled originals or originals which have been folded may misfeed in the RADF or cause incorrect size detection. It is recommended that these be copied from the document glass and the copies be used as original documents.

●When feeding originals which have closely spaced binding holes punched along an edge, place the originals so that the punched edge is positioned to the right or along the side guides.

●Special originals such as transparency film and tracing paper should not be fed from the RADF, but should be placed on the document glass.

●Duplex copying will not work when a non-standard sized paper or 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" paper is used.

●If the orientation of the originals does not match that of the copy paper when both the originals and copy paper are of standard sizes and the auto paper select mode or automatic copy ratio select mode is on, the image of the originals will be automatically rotated to match the copy paper. However, if enlargement copying onto a paper size larger than 8-1/2" x 11" is performed, the image will not be rotated.

●Image loss (max. 13/64" (5 mm)) can occur along the leading and trailing edges of the copies. Also image loss (max. 13/64" (5 mm) in total) can occur along the other edges of the copies.

●The RADF can handle a maximum of 50 originals of 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" to 8-1/2" x 11" sizes and 30 originals of 8-1/2" x 14" to 11" x 17" sizes.

●2-sided to 1-sided copying and 2-sided to 2-sided copying can be performed in these models.

●The originals must be set face up in the document feeder tray.

●Different size originals with the same width can be placed in the document feeder tray and automatically copied onto copy paper of their respective sizes.

The automatic copy ratio selection will not function in this case.

CHAPTER2 MAKING COPIES Using the RADF

Stream feeding mode

If the stream feeding mode has been enabled using a key operator program, the message “NEWLY PLACED ORIGINALS WILL BE FED AND COPIED AUTOMATICALLY.” will appear and the original feed indicator will continue to blink for approximately 5 seconds after feeding of all originals is completed. While this message is displayed, any new originals placed in the document feeder tray will be fed and copied automatically.

★ KEY OPERATOR See page 17 of the KEY OPERATOR’S GUIDE for information on setting the stream feeding mode.
