The machine assembles copies as sets in sequential order.
To use the Rotate Sort function, two paper trays loaded with paper of the same size and type, but in different orientation () are required. For details, see "System Settings", Connecting the Machine/ System Settings.
You cannot use the bypass tray with Rotate Sort.
Sort/Shift Sort
Copies are assembled as sets in sequential order.
To use Shift Sort, a finisher or the internal shift tray is required. Each time the copies of one set or a job are delivered, the next copy is shifted to separate each set or job.
Rotate Sort
Every other copy set is rotated by 90 degrees () and delivered to the copy tray.
Press [Finishing].
Select [Sort] or [Rotate Sort], and then press [OK].
Enter the number of copy sets using the number keys.
Place the originals.
To confirm the type of finishing, press the [Sample Copy] key.
Press the [Start] key.
If you are copying from the exposure glass, a single copy of each original is made first. If the first copy set is acceptable, you can make the remaining copy sets by pressing the [] key. The time required for copy sets to be delivered varies depending on the print settings.
Paper sizes and orientations that can be used in the Rotate Sort function are as follows:
A4, A5
, B5 JIS

, 71/4 × 101/2
, 41/8 × 91/2
, C5 Env

When using the Rotate Sort function, the capacity may be reduced.
When the number of copies exceeds capacity, copying stops. If this happens, remove copies from the tray to resume copying.
For details about the number of copy sheets that the output tray can accommodate, and paper sizes and orientations that can be shifted when delivered to the shift tray, see "Specifications", Maintenance and Specifications.
You can change the settings for the Sort function under [Input / Output] in User Tools. For details, see Input / Output.
