Making Copies Chapter 3
4. Input Output Mode
Each of the Sort Bins holds up to 25 sheets of paper. The Auto Dual Function, however, allows sorting of
copies of up to 50 originals under certain conditions.
When less than 5 copies are made from an original set consisting of more than 25 originals, in the Sort
Mode the Sorter or the Staple Sorter is automatically switched into the Auto Dual Function Mode using
the 6th to 10th Bins.
* If the number of copies selected exceeds 5, the copy cycle stops at the 25th original.
* To have a complete set of originals, place the copies from the 6th Bin on top of those from the 1st Bin.
In the same way, place the copies from the 7th Bin on top of those from the 2nd Bin, and so on.
When more than 25 copies are to be grouped together into one group, the Staple Sorter uses the next Bin
to continue grouping the copies.
The capacity of the 1st Bin is 50. If more than 50 copies are made in the Non-Sort mode, the Sorter uses
the 1st, 2nd, and subsequent Bins to hold those excess copies.
When 5 or less copies are made from an original set consisting of more than 26 originals in the Sort-and-
Staple Mode and the Auto Dual function is activated, the Sort-and-Staple Mode is automatically switched
to the Sort Mode (no stapling takes place.)
