  • Paper fed from the interposer cannot be folded. However, paper fed from the twin interposer can be folded.

  • Copying will stop if the number of copies exceeds tray capacity. If this happens, remove copies from the folding unit tray to resume copying. The finisher automatically ejects the maximum number of folded sheets to the finisher booklet tray.

  • The printed side of the paper may occasionally be scratched or stained with toner depending on the paper and the conditions of the machine's environment.

  • Print quality over fold lines might be reduced. This is due to cracking within the fused toner. Loss of surface along fold lines can also occur with some types of paper. To avoid possible wastage, print a single test sheet before beginning a print run.

  • The capacity of the multi-folding unit tray or finisher tray may vary depending on the fold settings and the condition of the paper.

  • For details about which sizes and weights of paper that can be folded, see the specifications of each option.

  • You can specify the fold-back position in [System Settings]. For details about how to adjust the fold-back position, see "System Settings", Connecting the Machine/ System Settings.
