MX-M232D  (CHANGING THE COPY PAPER SIZE IN THE TRAY) 11 - 1

If the size of the loaded paper is different from the size shown in the 
display, follow the steps below to change the paper size setting of the 
tray.

Note:

•  The paper size setting cannot be changed during copying, printing, 

fax printing (when the fax option is installed), or interrupt copying, or 
when a misfeed has occurred. However, if the machine is out of 
paper or out of toner, the paper size setting can be changed during 
copying, printing, and fax printing.

•  See "[3] SPECIFICATIONS" on the Service Manual (00ZMXM182/ 

S1E) for information on the specifications for the types and sizes of 
paper that can be loaded in the paper trays.

•  The paper size cannot be set for the bypass tray.

 

1) Adjust the plates in the tray to the length and width of the paper.

•  The plate A is a slide-type guide. Grasp the locking knob on the 

guide and slide the guide to the indicator line of the paper to be 
loaded.

•  The plate B is an insert-type guide. Remove it and then insert it at 

the indicator line of the paper to be loaded.

•  When using 11" x 17" sized paper store the plate B in the slot at the 

left front of the paper tray.

2) Press the [SPECIAL FUNCTION] key.

3) Press the [ ] or [ ] key to select "PAPER SIZE SET".

4) Press the [OK] key.

5) Press the [ ] or [ ] key to select the paper tray for which the paper 

size is being changed.

6) Press the [ ] key.

The cursor moves to the paper size selection position on the right.

7) Press the [ ] or [ ] key to select the paper size.

To change the size of another paper tray, press the [ ] key and then 
repeat steps 5 to 7.

8) Press the [OK] key.

A message asking you to confirm the new paper size setting will 
appear.

9) Press the [OK] key.

The selected paper size will be stored and the display will return to 
the base screen.

Note:Affix the paper size label for the paper size selected in step 7 to the 

label position on the right end of the tray.

Simulation is hereinafter described as SIM.

Perform the following procedure to enter the SIM mode.
"#" key 

 Interrupt key 

 "C" key 

 Interrupt key 

 Main code 

Start key 

 Sub code 

 Start key

When the clear all key is pressed, the SIM mode is cancelled.
When the interruption key is pressed, the process is interrupted and the 
screen returns to the sub code entering display.
*

After canceling the SIM mode, be sure to turn OFF/ON the power 
and check the operation.

Note:If the machine is terminated by a jam error or paper empty during 

copying in the adjustment by the SIM, recopying is required.

Note:If a jam error or paper empty occurs during copying in the 

adjustment by the simulation, the image data are not saved, and 
therefore recopying is required.

Note:In advance to this adjustment, the sub scanning magnification 

ratio adjustment must be performed.

1) Set a scale on the OC table as shown below.

2) Make a copy.
3) Check the copy output. If necessary, perform the following 

adjustment procedures.

4) Execute SIM 50-01. 

Select a desired mode with the arrow keys, enter the adjustment 
value with 10-key, and press [OK] key.

 

When [START] key is pressed, a sheet is printed.

 

When [RETURN] key is pressed, the process returns to the mode 
selection window.

5) Set the OC lead edge position set value (RRC-A) to [1]

 

The OC image scanning start position is shifted inside the 
document edge.

6) Set the main cassette lead edge void adjustment value (DEN-A)* to 

[1]

 

The lead edge void becomes the minimum.

7) Set the main cassette print start position value (TRAY1) to [1] and 

make a copy.

 

The print start position is shifted inside the document edge.

8) Measure the image loss R of the copied image. Enter the set value 

of the image scanning lead edge position (RRC-A) again.

• 1 step of the set value corresponds to about 0.1mm shift.
• Calculate the set value from the formula below.
R/0.1(mm) = Image loss set value

 

 <R: Image loss measurement value (mm)>

Example:

4/0.1 = 40 = about 40

Note:If the set value is not obtained from the above formula, perform 

the fine adjustment.

9) Measure the distance H between the paper lead edge and the 

image print start position. Set the image print start position set value 
(TRAY1) again.

• 1 step of the set value corresponds to about 0.1mm shift.
• Calculate the set value from the formula below.
H/0.1(mm) = Image print start position set value

 

 <H: Print start position measurement value (mm)>

Example:

5/0.1 = 50 = about 50

Note:If the set value is not obtained from the above formula, perform 

the fine adjustment.

10) Set the lead edge void adjustment value (DEN-A)* again.
• 1 step of the set value corresponds to about 0.1mm shift.
• Calculate the set value from the formula below.
B/0.05 (mm) = Lead edge void adjustment value

 

 <B: Lead edge void (mm)>

Example:

When setting the lead edge void to 2.5mm

 

:2.5 /0.05 = about 50

Note:If the set value is not obtained from the above formula, perform 

the fine adjustment.

1) Set a scale on the OC table as shown below.

Note:Since the printed copy is used as a test chart, put the scale in 

parallel with the edge lines.

2) Make a copy, Then use the copy output as an original to make an 

SPF copy again.

3) Check the copy output. If necessary, perform the following 

adjustment procedures.

4) Execute SIM 50-6.
5) Set the SPF lead edge position set value (SIDE1) so that the same 

image is obtained as that obtained in the previous OC image lead 
edge position adjustment.
