First Printing Number
Enter the number of the page from which page numbering starts.
Last Number
Enter the number of the page at which page numbering ends. For example, if you want to print 7 pages only, enter "7" for [Last Number]. Normally, you do not need to enter the number.

For example, when you select [1/5,2/5...] as the page numbering format and specify "1" in [First Printing Number] and "4" in [Total Pages], it is printed in the order of 1/4, 2/4, 3/4, and 4/4.

Replacing a copy with a printed page number with new one
If you select [1/5,2/5...] as a format and want to replace the third page of 4 pages, enter "3" in [First Printing Number] and "4" in [Total Pages].
Copying a large number of originals by dividing them into parts
If you select [1/5,2/5...] as a format and copy 200 pages of originals but only 100 pages can be loaded in the ADF, copy them by dividing in half. To make page numbers of copies stay in serial order by performing the following procedure.
Place the first 100 pages of the original in the ADF.
Enter "200" in [Total Pages], and then copy them.
Place the other 100 pages in the ADF.
Enter "101" in [First Printing Number] and "200" in [Total Pages], and then copy them.

If you do not want the page numbers printed on the first and last pages of copies, specify the following three items.
In [First Printing Page], enter "2".
In [First Printing Number], enter "1".
In [Last Number], enter a number that is two less than the total original pages.

If you combine this function with the Duplex (Top to Top) function page numbers on the back are printed as shown in the illustration below. To print page numbers at the same position for both the front and back sides of a paper, set [Duplex Back Page Stamping Position: T to T] to [Same Position] in [Page Numbering] under [Stamp]. For details, see "Page Numbering", Preparation.
When Page Numbering is used with the Combine function or bookbinding function such as Booklet, page numbers are printed as follows:
[Per Original] is selected in [Page Numbering in Combine]:
With the One-sided Combine or Two-sided Combine function
With the Magazine or Booklet function
With Magazine & Combine or Booklet & Combine function
[Per Copy] is selected in [Page Numbering in Combine]:
With the One-sided Combine or Two-sided Combine function
With Magazine & Combine or Booklet & Combine function
If this function is used with Combine mode when [Page Numbering in Combine] is set to [Per Original] in [Page Numbering] under [Stamp], the [Duplex Back Page Stamping Position] setting is ignored and the page numbers are printed at the same position for both the front and back sides of a paper.
