Operations and Terms Used in This Manual
This machine makes effective use of memory in order 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
output.
To avoid confusion when reading this manual, the terms “scanning,” “printing,” and
“copying” used throughout this manual are defined below. There are some cases in
which the scanning of an original when making a copy, and the process of making a
print, are described separately.
Scanning
Scanning an original to be copied or
sent, or scanning an original to be
stored as data in an inbox.
Printing
Outputting a copy, outputting data stored in an inbox,
or outputting data sent from a personal computer to the machine.
