INTRODUCTION

The AR-507 copier is a digital image processing copier which provides high productivity and convenient features including intelligent image-editing functions.

Amongst its many useful features and functions are the document feeder, various special functions such as dual page copying, margin shift, erase, XY zoom, and black and white reverse functions, photo copying, and an internal auditor. If this copier is connected with another copier of the same model equipped with the same options through the tandem- connection cable (AR-CA1), copying can be performed using the two copiers allowing copying to be twice as fast as copying on one copier when making multiple copies. Also, the JOB BUILD mode allows copies to be made of multipage documents of up to 120 pages (the limit, however, might be up to 60 pages of B4 or A3 (8-1/2" x 14" or 11" x 17") paper size when the copier is equipped with some option) by dividing the document into sections small enough (50 pages or less) and sequentially feeding through the document feeder.

The digital processing system of the copier allows multiple sets of copies to be sorted without the aid of a sorter. This copier can be equipped with an optional large capacity tray which holds 3,000 sheets of copy paper. The machine can also be equipped with an optional finisher to provide finished copy sets ready for distribution.

This copier was also designed with ease of use in mind. The easy-to-understand operation panel with touch panel system and INFORMATION function will guide the user through most operations. To gain the maximum benefit of all the features of the copier, however, it is recommended that users first read this manual to become familiar with all the features of the copier.

NOTE:

This manual describes only copier features. For a description of optional printer features and scanner features, see the separate relevant manual.
