This program is used to adjust the lightness or darkness of documents in the printer mode. The
factory default is level ‘3’.

When the “PRINTER EXPOSURE LEVEL” key is pressed, the following display will appear.

1.  Set the desired density level using the “

”

and “

” keys.

2.  Press the “OK” key.

This program is used to specify the percentage of document memory allocated to storage of printer
jobs. In the default setting, the memory capacity for printer jobs is 30% (60 pages for A4 or 8-1/2" x
11"). To print documents that exceed this limit, increase the percentage using this program.

When the “MEMORY RESERVED FOR PRINTER” key is pressed, the following display will appear.

This program can be used only for models with a 1 GB hard disk drive. For models with a 2 GB or more hard disk drive
or no hard disk drive, this program cannot be used.

1.  Select the desired percentage.

2.  Press the “OK” key.

If ‘30%’ is specified, the maximum number of pages in a block is 60 for A4, letter or smaller sizes. If ‘60%’ is
specified, the maximum number is 120 for A4, letter or smaller sizes.
Since the memory in this printer is used for both copier and printer features, the setting of this program will affect
copying performance. Assign an appropriate value.

PRINTER EXPOSURE LEVEL

When multiple sets of a document have been requested and the document memory cannot hold the
entire document, this program gives the option to print one set or multiple sets.

When the “OUTPUT METHOD WHEN MEMORY IS FULL” key is pressed, the following display will
appear.

1. Select 

“1 SET” or “MULTI-SET”.

2.  Press the “OK” key.

When the document memory becomes full of print job pages, the printer will start printing the data which have been

stored in the memory. If multiple sets of the document have been requested and “MULTI-SET” is specified with this
program, the sets will be printed in blocks. Each set of printed sheets will be stacked offset from the previous set.
Finally, the printer will output a notice page unless it is prohibited with a key operator program.

This program applies only to face down delivery. See page 57 “Notes on Printing Lengthy Documents”.

This program is used to specify a set of the maximum number of confidential print jobs that can be
stored in the printer and the maximum number of pages in a job. In the default setting, up to 16
jobs including up to 28 pages of A4 or 8-1/2" x 11" paper can be stored in the printer.

1.  Select the desired set of the number of jobs and

the number of pages.

•

  The number of pages indicates the maximum

number for A4 or 8-1/2" x 11" paper.

2.  Press the “OK” key.

When the printer has any confidential print jobs, this change cannot be done. Wait until all confidential print jobs are
complete.

This program is used to enable or disable paper size detection of the bypass tray in the printer
mode. This setting does not affect the paper size detection in the copier mode.

To enable paper size detection of the bypass tray in the printer mode, press the “ENABLE
BYPASS-TRAY SIZE DETECTION” box to display a check mark.

To disable paper size detection, press the checked box again to clear the check mark.

If size detection of the bypass tray is disabled, paper in the bypass tray will always be treated as the largest allowable
size paper (either 11" x 17" or A3). If an image larger than the paper in the bypass tray is printed, a malfunction may
occur. Be careful when disabling the size detection.

This program is used to select one of the two image processing methods for printing with stapling.
If this program is set, the printer will start printing while storing image data. The printing speed will
be higher. If improper paper size for stapling is found or the number of sheets exceeds the limit for
stapling, however, printing will stop. If this program is not set, the printer will start printing after
storing all image data. The printing speed will be lower. If an error data such as improper paper size
is received, however, the printer will continue printing without stapling. This program is set in the
factory default setting.

To give priority to printing speed, press the “GIVE PRIORITY TO PRINT SPEED IN STAPLE
MODE” box to display a check mark.

To cancel priority to printing speed, press the checked box again to clear the check mark.

This program can be applied to the AR-505 and AR-507.

This program is used to specify whether a notice page and separator sheets will be printed when
the printer memory becomes full and divided printing must be performed. If notice page printing has
been enabled, a notice page will be printed at the end of a print job and separator sheets will be
printed between each block letting the user know that the job has been divided into blocks and the
user must re-stack the document.

To prohibit notice page printing, press the “PROHIBIT NOTICE PAGE PRINTING” box to display a
check mark.

To restore notice page printing, press the checked box again to clear the check mark.
