Note

  • Check the position of the index tab to avoid cropping the image. If the image extends beyond the index tab, the backs of sheets may get soiled with toner.

  • When a paper jam has occurred, check the order of originals and tab stock, and then restart copying.

  • You cannot have copies delivered face up.

  • For details about the sizes of tab stock that can be used, see "Recommended Paper Sizes and Types", Preparation.

Surplus tab stock auto eject

When copying onto tab stock but not using all the tab stock for each copy, remaining sheets of tab stock are automatically ejected.

Before using this function, specify the number of sheets of tab stock (Number of Tabs) in one set.

For example, if you use three of five tabs that form a set in a tray and insert slip sheets using the Designate function, the unused fourth and fifth tab sheets are automatically ejected when the first copy is complete.
