If no action is taken for a certain length of time when 
viewing information on finished jobs, jobs in progress, 
or stored jobs, the auto clear function activates and 
returns the display to the initial screen of copy mode or 
the job status screen. AUTO CLEAR SETTING is used 
to set the amount of time that must elapse for the auto 
clear function to activate. The time can be set from 10 
seconds to 240 seconds in increments of 10 seconds, 
or the auto clear function can be disabled. (This setting 
only operates in copy mode and network scanner 
mode.)

This program is used to set the length of time that 
messages appear in the display (this applies to 
messages that appear for a certain length of time and 
then automatically disappear.) 
The time can be set to as long as 12 seconds in 
increments of one second.

This program is used to select whether or not a beep is 
sounded when a key is touched, and if sounded, what 
type of beep.
The program is also use to select whether or not a 
special key touch beep is sounded at the initial point of 
a setting.

 key .... Touch this key to select a low beep 

volume. A single beep indicates a valid 
key, and a double beep indicates an invalid 
key.

 key .... Touch this key to select a high beep 

volume. A single beep indicates a valid 
key, and a double beep indicates an invalid 
key.

 key .... Touch this key to disable key touch beeps.

Select the [KEYS TOUCH SOUND AT INITIAL POINT] 
checkbox to have three long beeps sound (when the 
beep volume is set to high) or three short beeps sound 
(when the beep volume is set to low) when the initial 
point of a setting is reached while selecting basic 
settings.
The initial point settings are as follows:

These programs are used to set the length of time that 
must elapse until a setting is entered after a key is 
touched, and to disable key repeat.
The setting entry time can be set from 0.0 seconds to 
2.0 seconds in increments of 0.5 seconds.
When [DISABLE AUTO KEY REPEAT] is enabled, 
only one touch is registered if key is touched 
continuously.

When printing in printer mode, printing can be paused 
to enble an interrupt copy job to be performed.
Enable this program if you wish to prevent pausing of 
printing for interrupt copy jobs.

Use this program to enable stream feeding mode.
When this mode is enabled and originals are scanned 
from the REVERSING SINGLE PASS FEEDER, an 
original can be added to the REVERSING SINGLE 
PASS FEEDER within 5 seconds after the previous 
original is fed, and be automatically scanned using the 
settings of the previous original. This function can be 
used with the copy function and the scanner function.

This program is used to change the language used in 
the display.

When this program is disabled, the display will close 
the screen that is currently open and return to the 
initial screen if no keys are touched for 60 seconds.

Use these programs when a peripheral device on the 
machine has failed or when you wish to temporarily 
disable a device. The programs can also be used to 
change the function setting of a device as required by 
your conditions of use.

of time can be set from 1 second to 60 seconds in 
increments of 1 second.

When this program is enabled, originals of mixed 
length (the widths must be the same) can be scanned 
in copy mode and each original copied onto the 
corresponding length of paper.

This program is used to change the key operator code 
that must be entered to configure the key operator 
programs. When the machine is first used, the key

the key operator code that was set at the factory to the 
desired 5-digit code. Only one key operator code can 
be programmed.
The factory default setting for the key operator code is
