MAIN FEATURES

High-speed laser copying

First-copy time*1at 300 dpi*2is only 9.6 seconds.

Copying speed is 15 copies per minute. This is ideal for business use and provides a

big boost to workplace productivity.

*1First-copy time may vary depending on the power-supply voltage, ambient

temperature, and other operating conditions.

*2"dpi" ("dots per inch") is unit that is used to measure resolution. Resolution

indicates how much detail can be reproduced in a printed or scanned image.

High-quality digital image

• High-quality copying at 600 dpi is performed.

• In addition to automatic exposure adjustment, two original modes can be selected:

"TEXT" for text-only originals, and "PHOTO" for photographs. The exposure can be

adjusted to five levels in each mode.

• The photo mode copying function allows clear copying of delicate halftone original

images such as monochrome photos and color photos.

Enhanced copying features

• Zoom copies can be made from 25% to 400% in increments of 1%. (When the

RSPF is being used, the zoom copy ratio range is 50% to 200%.)

• Continuous copying of up to 99 copies is possible.

• Sets of output can be offset from each other for easy separation (offset function).

• Sorting by sets is possible without the need for a sorter or other special device

(Sort copy).

• Includes convenient features such as margin shift, 2 IN 1 copy, and automatic two-

sided copying.

Scan once/Print many

• The machine is equipped with a memory buffer allowing the machine to scan an

original once and make up to 99 copies of the scanned image. This improves

workflow, reduces operating noise from the machine and reduces wear and tear on

the scanning mechanism, which provides for a higher reliability.

LCD panel displays messages

The LCD panel displays messages that show function settings and the status of the

machine.

Margin shift

Sort copy Offset function 2 IN 1 copy
