| ADF | Maximum: 297 mm × 432 mm Minimum: 105 mm × 128 mm | 52–128 g/m2 |
*1 When using an A3 size original, be sure to check the printed paper size and print size, and use the Reduce or Combine functions.
Inch version
| Where original is placed | Original size | Original weight |
| Exposure glass | Up to 11" × 17" ☑ *1 | -- |
| ADF | Maximum: 11.7" × 17.0" Minimum: 4.1" × 5.0" | 14–28 lb. |
*1 When using an 11'' × 17'' size original, be sure to check the printed paper size and print size, and use the Reduce or Combine functions.
Note
The maximum number of originals that can be placed in the ADF is about 30 (80g / m^2,20lb.)
If you do not lift the exposure glass cover more than 30^ when you place another original, the machine might not detect the next original correctly.
Non compatible originals for the Auto Document Feeder (ADF)
Placing the following types of originals in the ADF can cause paper misfeeds or result in damage to the originals. Place these originals on the exposure glass instead.
- Originals other than those specified on p.17 "Recommended Sizes and Weights of Originals"
- Perforated or torn originals
- Curled, folded, or creased originals
- Pasted originals
- Originals with any kind of coating, such as thermal fax paper, art paper, aluminum foil, carbon paper, or conductive paper
- Originals with indexes, tags, other projecting parts
- Stapled or clipped original
- Sticky originals such as translucent paper
- Thin originals that have low stiffness
- Thick originals such as postcards
- Bound originals such as books

Print Paper
The following limitations apply:
| Paper Size | Paper Weight | ||
| Metric | Inch | ||
| Paper feed tray | A3☐ "1, B4 JIS ☐, A4 ☐, B5 JIS ☐, A5 ☐, B6 JIS ☐, A6 ☐Others (Vertical: 90 - 268 mm, Horizontal: 148 - 388 mm) | 81/2" × 14" ☐, 81/2" × 11" ☐, 51/2" × 81/2" ☐, 8" × 13" ☐Others (Vertical: 3.6" - 10.5", Horizontal: 5.9" - 15.2") | 47.1 - 209.3 g/m2, 12.5 - 55.6 lb. |
*1 For details about how to print on A3, see p.60 "A3 Paper Feed".
Note
- Paper with a thickness of 47.1 - 209.3g / m^2 can be used. However, when using a thickness less than 52.5g / m^2 or greater than 81.6g / m^2 , it is advised to select printing speed to setting 1.
□ About 1,000 sheets of paper with a 64g / m^2 thickness is the standard amount that can be set in the paper feed tray. This amount changes depending on the paper thickness. In general, set paper at a height less than 105mm . - When using paper that easily curls or waves in humidity, if there is high humidity (more than 80% ), set less than 500 sheets in the paper feed tray.
- Paper with a length of 90 - 297mm and width of 140 - 420mm can be set in the paper feed tray. However, when using a paper size that exceeds 275mm length and 395mm width, specify A3 Paper Feed. Specifying this function sets the printing speed to 80cpm and the print position to -10mm .
- Do not use curled or waved paper. Use paper with less than 5mm curl and 3 mm wave.
- When paper feed problems arise, try using a slower print speed.
Non-recommended Paper
The following types of paper are not recommended for this machine:
- Roughly cut paper
- Paper of different thickness and types in the same stack
- Envelopes heavier than 85g / m^2 22.6 lb.
- Folded, curled, creased, or damaged paper
Damp paper - Torn paper
- Slippery paper
- Rough paper
- Paper with any kind of coating (such as carbon)
- Short grain paper
- Thin paper that has low stiffness
- Paper that is prone to generate a lot of paper dust
- Grained paper loaded with the direction of the grain perpendicular to the feed direction
- Certain types of long thin envelopes.
E.g. international mail envelopes

- The following types of envelopes
| Envelopes with glue or gum | Envelopes with windows | Envelopes with round tags | Open envelopes |
| Paper feed direction |
Note
- Do not use inkjet paper. It does not absorb ink well, print will smudge if rubbed, and the back of paper may be dirtied.
If you print on rough grained paper, the print image might be blurred.
Important
- Correct curls in the paper before placing it in the machine. When you cannot correct the paper curl, stack the paper with the curl face down or face up as shown in the illustration. If the paper is curled, it might wrap around the drum or stains might appear.

To prevent paper misfeeds
If paper is curled or the margin on the leading edge of the original is too narrow, the following action is necessary.
- Before using the paper, correct the curl as shown below.

- If you are unable to correct the paper curl, place the paper in the paper feed tray with it curling either upward or downward, as shown in the illustration below.

- When the leading edge margin of the original is less than 5mm, 0.2" , or when there is a solid image on the leading edge, feed the original from the edge with the widest margin. Alternately, create a leading edge margin on a duplicate of the original, and then print from the duplicate.

- Depending on the paper type, paper jams or wrinkling may occur. In such cases, reduce the printing speed and then print. For details about how to change printing speed, see p.40 "Changing the Printing Speed".

Operation Notes
General Cautions
While printing, do not turn off the main switch.
While printing, do not open the door or covers.
- While printing, do not unplug the power cord.
While printing, do not move the machine.
- Keep corrosive liquids, such as acid, off the machine.
- Open and close the door and covers softly.
- Do not put anything except originals on the machine.
- Do not spill liquid on the machine.
- When opening or closing the door or covers, keep hold of them so they don't fall.
- When removing the drum unit from the machine, be careful not to let the drum unit fall.
- Do not modify or replace any parts other than the ones specified in this manual.
- Do not operate the machine without covers. You might get your fingers caught in the machine, or the machine might be damaged because, for example, dust or the like might get inside.
- Since some parts of the machine are sharp and might cause injury, touch only the parts specified in this manual.
- If you clean rubber parts with water, wipe them with a dry cloth afterwards.
- Always turn the machine off when you have finished printing for the day.
- If the machine must be transported by vehicle, please contact your service representative.
- Be sure to make a few trial prints to check the image position because the image position of the trial print might not correspond with that of the original.
- If the image registration is not consistent, slow the printing speed down to Setting 1.
- When performing duplex or multicoloured printing, leave the printed paper for a while before the next printing in order to let the ink dry on the printed paper. If this is not done, feed roller marks will appear on the print image.
- If the machine is not used for a long period, the image density might decrease because the ink on the drum might dry. Make extra prints until the image density recovers.
- When the machine is used in low temperature conditions, the image density might decrease. In this case, slow the printing speed down to step 1 or 2.
- When making duplex prints, misdetection of paper wrapping might occur if the paper delivery sensor detects a black area at the leading edge of the back side. Keep at least 5mm , 0.2'' margin at the leading edge of the back side of the printing paper.
- Press the [Proof] key to perform a test print as the first few prints might be light.
- When making duplex prints or when using non-white printing paper, the paper end sensor might malfunction and fail to detect the paper. In this case, place a blank sheet under the printing paper on the paper feed tray.
- The outer portion of the image might not be printed under low temperature. In this case, slow the printing speed down to step 1 or 2, or increase the room temperature.
- The paper exit pawn might contact the printing paper and cause black lines on the prints. In this case, increase the printing speed or make a new master with lighter image density mode.
- If you cannot pull out the drum, close the front cover again to rotate the drum. Pull out the drum after it stopped at the correct position.
- The leading edge of the prints might become stained if the edge touches the image of prints on the paper delivery tray.
- The ink of the print on the paper delivery tray might stick to the back side of the next print.
- When the machine is on and the power source is less than 90% of the specified amount, printing quality will decrease. Therefore, make sure the supply from your electrical outlet is at least 90% of the required amount.
- As various kinds and qualities of paper exist, some paper might be wrapped around the drum or cause misfeeds.
- If your hands are stained with ink:
- Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.
- Cleansse skin thoroughly after contact, before breaks and meals, and at the end of the work period.
- Ink is readily removed from skin by waterless hand cleaners followed by washing with soap and water.
- Also, be careful not to get any ink on your clothing while emptying the master eject box or while loading a new ink cartridge.
- The image density varies according to the printing speed and the room temperature. So, adjust the printing speed or increase the room temperature.
- When you make a lot of prints from a small image, ink might ooze out from the edges of the master, especially under high temperature and when printing in two or more colours. In this case, make a new master.
- Use ink made within one year. Ink stored for a long period tends to dry slowly and yield lower image density.
-
While making a master, do not leave the exposure glass cover or optional Auto Document Feeder open.
-
In Text/Photo mode, moire patterns might occur when screened originals are printed. In this case, make prints in Text or Photo mode.
- When you use originals with light lettering, edges of the letters might be printed clearly and the inside of the letters might be light. In this case, increase the image density.
- When marks on the printing paper occur, clean the paper feed roller. See p.120 "Maintaining the Machine".
- If you make a second print before the ink from the first print dries, the ink may adhere to the paper feed roller and soil the print. Before printing on the reverse side of a printed sheet or overprinting on a printed sheet, be sure that the ink on the first print is adequately dry.
Print Paper
- When the paper is curled, stack the paper with the curl face down, otherwise the paper might wrap around the drum or stains might appear.
- Postcards and the like do not absorb ink well. Offset images might appear on the rear side of subsequent prints. Solid image originals will cause offset image prints.
Originals
- If there is no margin or if there is a solid image area near the leading edge of the original, leave a margin of at least 5mm , 0.2^ , at the leading edge; otherwise, the paper might wrap around the drum or the paper exit pawl might become dirty and cause black lines on prints.
- If you use originals that have bold letters or solid images at the leading edges, you might get prints with dirty edges. In this case, insert the widest margin first, or raise the printing speed.
-
Under the following conditions, the machine might not detect the original on the exposure glass. If you press the [Master Making] mode select key again, the machine will start making a master anyway:
-
When you set a dark original on the exposure glass.
- When the original is not centreed according to the size marks on the right scale.
- If you do not open the exposure glass cover at an angle of more than 30^ with the exposure glass when you replace originals.
- If the machine is installed under a strong light.
