Basic operation
Using the bypass tray
When you need to use a size of paper not currently loaded in your machine’s paper
cassette(s), or when you want to use a special type of paper (such as transparency
film), use the bypass tray.
Important: Your machine automatically selects suitable paper according to the
document size and reduction rate. So, if the suitable sized paper for
your copying is in the paper cassette, the machine will use it even if
you set the paper in the bypass tray.
Note: If the same sized paper is set in the both the paper cassette and bypass tray,
turn the bypass tray priority mode (see page 4.7) to get the priority to use
the paper which is set on the bypass tray than the paper in the cassette.
Note: If loading transparency (OHP) film into the bypass tray, be sure that the
sheet is designed for laser printers and not for copiers. Also, be sure that the
film does not have a paper backing and/or a leading strip. If it does, remove
the paper backing and/or strip before inserting. Only film should go in, not
film with any backing or strip.

Press
START
to begin the copying process.
Memory overflow message
If you’ve stored too much information in your machine’s memory, a “Memory
Overflow” message may appear on the
LCD
:
This appears because (1) too many pages have been stored in the memory, or (2)
the pages that are stored have too much information on them for your fax machine
to remember.
If this message appears, press
START
to tell your machine to copy as many pages in
memory, or press
CANCEL
to delete from memory all pages stored during the current
operation (but not previous operations).
Note: If you don’t operate your machine within 60 seconds, the machine will auto-
matically print the document stored in the memory during the current
operation.
If the paper runs out while copying
When your machine runs out of paper, it beeps, the
ALARM
light glows and the
LCD
shows which source has run out of paper – the 1st cassette, 2nd cassette (optional)
or the bypass tray.
In this example, the machine runs out of the paper in the 1st cassette:
If you want to cancel the current copying job, press
STOP
. Otherwise, supply the
paper to displayed paper source to resume the copying.
