Skip Feed

If the backs of prints are dirty, you can use the Skip Feed function to make the drum rotate twice instead of once with every sheet of paper fed. This gives you time to remove prints one by one from the paper delivery tray or to insert a sheet of paper between two prints.

Important

  • The number of rotations can be set from 2 to 9.

  • The default is [2]. To change this setting, see System Settings.

As the paper feeding time is longer than usual, you can use paper longer than the length limitation. The maximum length of paper in Skip Feed mode is 460 mm (18.1 inches).

When you use paper longer than 432 mm (17.0 inches), prints will not be delivered to the paper delivery tray properly, so lower the paper delivery end plate and take out the prints by hand.
