  • To prevent multiple sheets from being fed at once, fan paper before placing it on the tray.

  • When copying multiple originals using the exposure glass, pages are delivered in reverse order because the factory default setting is face up. If you place originals on the exposure glass and want the copies to be delivered face down, select Face Down for Copy Eject Face Method in Glass Mode. For details about Copy Eject Face Method in Glass Mode, see Input / Output.

  • If you select Tab Stock, you cannot have copies delivered face up.

  • Depending on the environment where the machine is being used, you might at times hear a rustling noise from paper moving through the machine. This noise does not indicate a malfunction.
