The original in the ADF takes precedence over the original on the exposure glass if you place originals both in the ADF and on the exposure glass.

Press the [Copy] key.

To make black-and-white photocopies, press the [B&W Start] key.

To make color photocopies, press the [Color Start] key.

The maximum number of copies is 99.
You can change the paper tray for the current job by pressing the [][] keys. If tray 2 is installed, you can select to change the paper tray automatically according to the paper size (A4 or Letter).
You can select the paper tray for printing out copies in [Select Paper] under copy settings. If you set the machine to switch between tray 1 and 2 automatically depending on the paper size in this setting, you can also specify the tray the machine uses first in [Paper Tray Priority] under system settings.
When making multiple copies of a multi-page document, you can select whether copies are output in collated sets, or in page batches in the [Sort] setting under copy settings.
If a paper jam occurs, printing stops after the current page has been printed out. After the jammed paper is removed, printing restarts from the jammed page automatically.
If a scanning jam occurs in the ADF, copying is canceled immediately. In this case, copy the originals again starting from the jammed page.
