Document Feeder

Document Feeder

The Reversing Automatic Document Feeder (RADF), feeds originals to the Exposure Glass for copying and if Duplex Copying is selected, it turns the original over for copying the other side of the original. Then, it exits the original onto the Document Tray.

You can place up to 50 originals in the Document Feeder for automatic feeding of originals to the Exposure Glass for copying.

You may also select SADF which allows you to feed one original at a time into the

Document Feeder without having to press the Start key each time.

Precautions when using Document Feeders

1. Avoid using:

Badly wrinkled or folded originals.

Clipped or stapled originals.

Carbon paper.

Torn originals.

Taped originals.

Damp originals.

1. Folded or curled originals should be smoothed out before inserting into the Document Feeder.

2. Feeding a stack of different width originals through the Document

Feeder is not recommended.

Feed them through one at a time.

You can, however, feed a stack of different length originals through the

Document Feeder.

3. If the surface of any two originals are so rough that they cannot be moved when pinched between two fingertips, the friction between the originals may obstruct paper separation even when the paper weight is within specifications.

2. Avoid covering the two sensors on the document feeder tray. These sensors detect the original size and could cause the orignal size to not be properly detected.

Combine Copying

Combine Copying

Combine copy, combines originals into one copy. You cannot use the Duplex or the Bypass

Tray with this feature. There are two types of copies that you can make in this mode:

1. 1 Sided 2 Pages to Combine 1 Side: Copies two 1-sided originals to one side of a sheet.

2. 1 Sided 4 Pages to Combine 1 Side: Copies four 1-sided originals together to one side of a sheet.

The number of originals copied (combined) can be 2 or 4.

In this mode, the machine selects the reproduction ratio automatically. This reproduction ratio depends on the copy paper sizes and the number of originals.

You can change the reproduction ratio from 50–200%.

When you set the originals in the document feeder and the machine is installed the extension memory, you can change the reproduction ratio from 25–400%

If the calculated ratio is under the minimum ratio, it is corrected within the range of the ratio automatically. However, with some ratios, parts of the image might not be copied or blank margins appear on copies.

Even if the direction of originals is different from that of the copy paper, the machine will automatically rotate the image by 90 to make copies properly. (When the Auto

Reduce/Enlarge function is selected.

You can make copies even if the number of originals is less than the number required in the selected mode.

When the number of originals placed is less than the number specified for combining, the last page(s) will be copied blank as shown in the illustration.

The ratio of the original image size to the copied image size. If the copy image is larger than the original, the % number is larger. A copied image that is twice the size of the original is said to be 200%. If the copy image is smaller than the original, the % number is lower. A copied image that is half the size of the original is said to be 50%.

The portion of the Control Panel with numerical keys. These keys are used primarily to input the desired number of copies and are also used to input numerical data into the copier during programming.

Any bound original that cannot be fed through the Feeder. Because the pages cannot be separated, they must be copied manually from the

Exposure Glass. The Book Original features can be used to make the book copying process more efficient.

A Tray used to feed single sheets of special or transparent stock into the copier to be copied. Because sheets from this tray feed straight through the copier paper path, the Tray is especially useful for feeding heavy stock. See also: Stack Feed Bypass Tray.

An operator that uses the copier to make copies but does not have Key

Operator responsibilities such as adding Toner or calling for service.

A device located near the Drum that activates the light sensitivity of the

Drum and prepares it to be exposed and imaged.

An assembly that cleans any residual image toner from the Drum in preparation for the next image.

The Key used to stop a copy job while it is still running. It may also be used to clear program functions from a previous job and return to the default settings.

The surface at the front of the copier containing Keys used to control the operation of the copier. It usually also contains the display that shows the status of the copier or the job in progress.

The imaged paper output from a copier. It might be a direct reproduction of the input document or it can contain any number of changes as programmed into the copier such as Enlargement/Reduction, Trim/Mask, etc.

This display or part of a display shows how many copies of the total have been made.

This display is the same as Copy Quantity, in that it shows the number of copies requested.

This term refers to the amount of toner placed on the copy through the imaging process. The amount of toner is controlled by the “darkness” of the original and the amount of light used during the exposure process; more light means less toner or image density.

This is a supply used in the copier. It usually consists of two parts; a carrier material and the toner. The developer material is only used by a technician when installing a new unit or when cleaning a Developer Unit.

Developer Unit

Document Feed Tray The Tray where an original document is placed to feed into an ADF for automatic feeding and copying.

Document Guide These Guides are located in the Document Feed Tray. When correctly positioned against the sides of an original document, they help to position the pages of the document.

Document Receiving

Tray

A Tray used to accumulate the pages of an original document that have completed the copying process.

Document Scale

An assembly located near the drum inside the copier that delivers the toner to the drum. It allow the correct amount of toner to be placed on the drum for each image.

Documents

Two scales located to the front and left of the Exposure Glass intended to help locate original documents placed on the Glass for manual copying and to identify a part of an original during the Editing process.

The set of pages either placed on the Exposure Glass or in the ADF to be copied.

Drum Assembly

Duplexed Copies

The unit located inside the copier that receives the image during the exposure and imaging process and transfers this image to the copy paper.

It is light sensitive and should be protected from bright lights.

Copies that have been imaged on both sides of the sheet.

Energy Saver Key

Energy Star

A Key used to place the copier into, or bring it out of an Energy Saver

A tray attached to the output end of the copier to collect copies. This tray is usually removed when a Sorter or Finisher is installed. In this case, the top tray of the Sorter or Finisher serves as the Exit Tray.

The glass surface located under the Document Cover or Document

Feeder. The original is placed here to make a copy. If an RADF is present, it transports the original to this location. Once here, the original is exposed by the Exposure Lamp located directly below the glass.

The light source located directly below the Exposure Glass. It is the light from this lamp that exposes the original, reflects off the original, travels through the optics and exposes the Drum.

A Pad located on the bottom side of a Document Cover used to hold an original in place on the Exposure Glass during the exposure process.

A setting in the copier that is set at the factory. You can change some of these settings. Others can be changed by a Service Technician. See also

Initial Setting.

The Cover located at the front of the copier designed to allow access to the interior of the copier. This allows the operator to add supplies, remove paper misfeeds, or perform other maintenance as prescribed by the

Operator Guide.

The image, usually black, that adheres to the surface of the copy paper.

This Toner is “Fused” to the surface of the paper using pressure and heat.

The unit located inside the exit area of the copier that provides heat and pressure to attach the toner to the paper surface.

In certain copiers, it is necessary to clean toner residue and paper dust from the Fuser Rollers. This provides extended life of the Rollers and cleaner copies. At certain intervals, this pad must be replaced.

A Display that shows icons related to service or supply related error condition. In some copiers, these icons may be incorporated into a graphic representation of the copier to show the approximate position of an error.

A term referring to the shades of gray between the black and the white areas on an original or copy. Normal copies reduce the shades of gray to produce very dense blacks and clean whites. During the photo copy modes, the copier is set to reproduce the shades of gray more faithfully, but usually at the expense of the black density.

The Key used to interrupt a long copy job in process in order to run a single copy. Interrupt copies are limited to one, and the interrupt original must be copied from the Exposure Glass.

The main operator responsible for the copier. This individual performs all operator prescribed maintenance and is the main contact in the event of a service call.

This term refers to the amount of toner placed on the copy through the imaging process. The amount of toner is controlled by the “darkness” of the original and the amount of light used during the exposure process; more light means less toner or image.

This display or part of a Touch Screen shows messages related to the status of the copier, Help messages and program information.

A switch located on the exterior of the copier used to control the power to the copier.

On copiers not equipped with a Document Feeder, a Cover protects the

Exposure Glass and prevents stray light from entering the copier during the copy process. Unless copying a 3-dimensional object, the cover should be down.

This icon instructs the operator which direction to place the document in the Document Feeder or on the Exposure Glass. This is particularly helpful when different paper sizes are available and when certain features are used such as; when reducing a legal sheet to letter-size paper, the icon would instruct you to feed the original lengthwise.

A paper carrier designed as part of the base of the copier. It is used to store and feed a stack of paper of one size. Some are designed to be adjusted but can only accommodate one size at a time.

Throughout the Operator Guide there are references to 20 lb. or 24 lb. paper. This refers to a standard measuring technique. A certain number of sheets cut to a particular size weighs 20 or 24 pounds. The weight specification usually correlates with the thickness of the paper. It also generally implies stiffness with the lighter papers being more limber and the heavier papers being stiffer. Copiers are designed to feed certain weight papers through the Drawers or Cassettes. Heavier stock, such as cover stock, can be fed through the Bypass Feed Tray.

The cord used to connect the copier to the power receptacle. The plug design is specified depending on the amount of power the copier requires.

Make sure the receptacle is the correct one for your copier.

This is an indicator that shows when the copier has warmed up and is ready to make copies. It appears in several forms; a light, an icon, and the message itself.

The lever located inside the Front Cover used to release the Upper Unit for access to the paper path.

One of the Coronas inside the copier. It is usually located near the Drum and separates the paper from the Drum. Because it attracts the toner, and since it is located below the paper, it has a tendency to get dirty. This can require the Key Operator to either clean the coronas or call for service.

A tray that opens from the side of the machine, usually just above the

Primary Paper Tray or LCC. It is designed to feed a single sheet at a time.

This tray can be used to feed paper or transparency stock that would normally not be placed in the Feed Drawers. Since it bypasses the normal paper feeding mechanism and feeds straight through the paper path, heavier stocks (like cover stock) feed better.

An accessory attached to the output of a copier designed to perform a sorting function. The sort function allows you to make multiple copy sets of an original in such a way that the pagination matches the original document.

A tray that opens from the side of the machine, usually just above the

LCC or Primary Paper Tray, and is designed to feed a stack of paper. This tray can be used to feed paper or transparency stock that would normally not be placed in the Feed Drawers. Since it bypasses the normal paper feeding mechanism and feeds straight through the paper path, heavier stocks (like cover stock) feed better.

This key is used to program the Stack functions. This is available only if a

Sorter or Finisher is present. In the stack mode, multiples of a single page of a document are placed in separate Sorter Trays or are offset in the

Finisher Tray.

This Key is used to start the copying process once all selections have been made. On a Lanier copier, it is always green in color.

The black powder that is used to form the image on copy paper. In a color copier, it would be colored. PLEASE NOTE: Toners are designed to operate specifically in a copier and differ greatly on the copier requirements. Toner from other copiers should never be mixed. At best, the image would be too light or too dark. At worst, it can damage your copier and require a service call to have the toner cleaned out and replaced with the correct toner.

A container designed to simplify the reloading of toner in your copier.

Make sure the toner you add is correct for your copier before loading. See the NOTE above.

A clear plastic stock used to make an overhead transparency. Because they are clear, they don’t feed from paper Drawers or Cassettes. However, many Bypass Feed Trays are designed to handle transparency stock. Place your transparency stock in the Bypass Feed Tray and use a normal copy procedure.

The rubber surface on the under side of an ADF. It grips an original and moves it across the Exposure Glass and returns it to the Document Exit

Area of the Document Feeder. To keep it operating correctly and to prevent the buildup of dirt which can cause dirty copies, it must be cleaned periodically.

An option, usually built into a copier that, when activated by a

Technician, requires the operator to enter a User Code to make copies.

The copier can contain many accounts thereby allowing the Key Operator to track copies made by individuals or departments.

The Zoom Keys are actually several keys that control the Enlargement or

Reduction of the image on the copy. In most cases, there is a 100% (actual size) key, a key representing the highest Enlargement ratio, and a key representing the lowest Reduction ratio. Pressing these last two keys steps the copier optics in 1% increments. Pressing the 100% key returns the copier to the actual size mode.
