Since the machine equipped with the SOPM function is
provided with 6MB memory, it can be upgraded to the machine
with the printer function without an additional memory. There-
fore, use the upgrade kit of AL-10PK in this case. For the model
which has no memory for SOPM, use the upgrade kit of AL-
11PK (with memory).
SOPM is the abbreviation of Scan One Print Many, which
means the function to allow multi copy by one scan.
