Using the Stack Bypass

You can perform reserved copying from the stack bypass by specifying in advance the paper to be loaded for the next job. However, this is possible only if paper is being fed from the stack bypass for the current job.

The following example assumes that A3 plain paper is being fed from the stack bypass for the current job, and that you are selecting A4 plain paper to be fed from the stack bypass for a reserved job.


Remark
  • When printing on special types of paper, such as heavy paper or transparencies, be sure to correctly set the paper type, especially if you are using heavy paper. If the type of paper is not set correctly, it could adversely affect the quality of the image. Moreover, the fixing unit may become dirty, or the paper could jam, and a service repair may be needed.
  • If Stack Bypass Standard Settings in Common Settings (from the Additional Functions screen) is set to 'On', reserved copying can be performed only for the registered paper size and type. (See "Additional Functions.")

  1. Press [Done] on the pop-up screen that appears while the machine is printing.

If the job displayed on the touch panel display is from a function other than the Copy function, press [Done] → [Copy] to display the Regular Copy Basic Features screen.

  1. Place your originals → set the desired copy modes → press [Paper Select] → [Stack Bypass Settings].

Normally, when reserved copying is not being set, the Stack Bypass Settings screen is automatically displayed when paper is loaded into the stack bypass.

  1. Select the desired paper size.

The paper size/type currently loaded and the paper size/type reserved to be loaded are displayed, as shown on the screen below.

  • If there is more than one reserved job waiting to print, only the last paper size/type specified for the reserved copy job is shown on the Paper Select screen and Regular Copy Basic Features screen.
  • If you select [Free Size], [Envelope], [Tracing Paper], [Transparency], or [Labels], you cannot specify any Finishing modes (Collate, Group, or Staple).
  • If Stack Bypass Standard Settings in Common Settings (from the Additional Functions screen) is set to 'On', and the paper size/type have been stored, the selected paper size/type are displayed on the screen. (See "Additional Functions.")
