NOTE
•
If the top edge of the original is not aligned with the back edge of the platen glass (by the
arrow in the top left corner), your original may not be scanned correctly, depending on the
copy mode you have set.
•
A4, A5, and B5 originals can be placed either vertically or horizontally. However, the
scanning speed for horizontally placed originals is somewhat slower than for vertically
placed originals. Place originals horizontally when printing with a preset copy ratio, such
as when enlarging an A4 or A5 original onto A3 paper. (See Chapter 1, “Basic
Operations,” in the
Copying Guide
.)
•
Horizontally placed A4, A5, and B5 originals are referred to as A4R, A5R, and B5R.
•
A3 and B4 originals must be placed horizontally.
•
To achieve the same output orientation using the optional feeder as when the original is
placed on the platen glass, place the original upside down and face up. However, if an
appropriate size of paper is not loaded for the Staple mode, the output is rotated
automatically.
