Points concerning the position of the printed copy image
Even if the same original is copied onto the same type of paper, differences in the original size, scanning location
(document glass or document feeder tray), selected paper tray, enlargement/reduction ratio, and other conditions
may cause the position of the printed copy image on the paper to vary.
As shown in the following example, when an original smaller than the paper size (for example, A5 original and A3
paper) is copied from the document glass, the position of the printed copy image on the paper is different when
paper from tray 1 is used (1) and paper from the bypass tray is used (2).

SELECTING THE TRAY
By default the auto paper select function (page 47) operates, and thus the appropriate tray is automatically selected
when the original is placed on the document glass or in the document feeder tray, or when the original size is
specified. If you wish to use a tray other than the automatically selected tray (for example you wish to enlarge or
reduce the copy or use the bypass tray), press the [PAPER SELECT] key to select the desired tray.

reduce the copy or use the bypass tray), press the [PAPER SELECT] key to select the desired tray.
Auto tray switching
If the tray runs out of paper during copying and there is another tray with the same size of paper and the same
feeding orientation (horizontal or vertical), the other tray is automatically selected and copying continues. Auto tray
switching can be disabled if needed. (Page 22)

Important note when making a large number of copies
If the number of sheets output to the centre tray exceed its maximum capacity (250 sheets when a job separator tray
kit is not installed, 150 sheets when a job separator tray kit is installed) during a copy job, the copy job will stop
temporarily. If this happens, promptly remove the copies and press the [OK] key to resume copying. The copy job
will step each time the number of sheets in the centre tray reach its maximum capacity.
Before starting a long copy run, remove any sheets that remain in the centre tray. During output of the copy job,
exercise care as the job may stop frequently due to the centre tray becoming full.
