When using the exposure glass, place the original face down. When using the ADF, place it face up.
Placing the original on the exposure glass
Placing the original in the ADF
When you cannot place the original as the above, you may not make copies as you want with particular functions. If this happens, change the orientation by selecting the unreadable orientation.
Readable direction
Select this mode if the orientation of the original matches the one of the copy paper.
Unreadable direction
If the original cannot be placed in a readable orientation (e.g. A3 or 11 × 17), place it in an unreadable direction and select this mode.
When using functions such as Duplex and Combine, take care to specify the orientation of the original correctly.
For example, the following diagram shows how to copy A3 or 11 × 17 originals when the Combine function is selected:
Press [Orig.].
Press [Original's Orientation].
Select the original orientation, and then press [OK] twice.
It is recommended that you use this function together with the Auto Paper Select or Auto Reduce/Enlarge function.
