Note

  • When placing an original on the exposure glass, start with the first page to be copied. When placing originals in the ADF, set so that the first page is on the top.

  • You can change the hole positions shown on the initial display using the [Input / Output] settings in User Tools. You can also register hole positions on the [Finisher] tab. To select a punch hole position not displayed on the initial display, you need to specify one of these settings. For details, see “Input/Output”.

  • When using Punch and Combine, Double Copies, or Auto Reduce/Enlarge, the message “Orig. and paper orientation mismatched for Punch mode. Cancel Punch mode or change paper orientation in tray.” may appear because of the orientation of the original and the copy paper. If this occurs, change the orientation of the copy paper.

  • Since punch holes are made in each copy, the punch hole positions vary slightly.
