xv
This machine makes effective use of memory to perform print operations efficiently. For
example, as soon as the machine has scanned the original that you want to copy, it can
immediately scan the next person's original. You can also print from this machine, using a
function other than the Copy function. In this machine, these operations take place in a complex
way, so that not only copies, but also various kinds of prints may sometimes have to wait their
turn before they can be printed.
To avoid confusion when reading this manual, the terms "scanning," "printing," and "copying,"
used throughout this manual are defined below. When making a copy, the process of scanning
originals and printing copies may be described as separate functions.
