Pamphlet copy* :

 

Copies of original pages are arranged in proper order for copying so that the copies can be center-stapled and

 

 

folded into a pamphlet (page 6-24).

 

* Pamphlet copy requires the Duplex module/2 x 500 sheet paper drawer and Duplex bypass/inverter unit

 

options. If a saddle stitch finisher is installed, copies can be stapled in two positions along the center of copies

 

and folded at the center.

 

4 Image processing manual exposure adjustment for optimal copying

 

Image processing is optimized for the type of original being copied (text, photo, mixed text and photo or map). This along with the ability to manually adjust exposure makes it possible to obtain copies that are faithful to the original.

Standard offset function makes it easy to distinguish between sets of copies

As sets of copies are delivered to the center tray, each set is offset from the previous set for easy separation.

PostScript compatible

Installation of an optional PS expansion kit (AR-PK4) gives PostScript compatibility (PostScript 3).

Energy saving features

This product has the following two power reducing modes to help conserve natural resources and reduce environmental pollution.

Preheat mode

Preheat mode automatically reduces the temperature of the fusing unit after the time set in the key operator programs elapses when the machine is on standby. This allows the machine to use less power while on standby. The machine automatically returns to normal operation when a key is pressed on the operation panel, or when an original is placed to make a copy or send a fax.

Auto power shut-off mode

Auto power shut-off mode automatically shuts off power to the fusing unit after the time set in the key operator programs elapses when the machine is on standby. This minimizes the power used by the machine while on standby. When this mode activates, the touch panel screen turns off.

To return the machine to normal operation, press the mode select key (the indicator of this key will be lit). Auto power shut-off mode can be configured in the key operator programs. The mode is initially set (factory default setting) to activate after 60 seconds elapses. (See page 9 of the key operator's guide.)

If a print job or fax is received while auto power shut-off mode or preheat mode is activated, the machine automatically returns to normal operation.
