INTRODUCTION This copier has been designed to provide convenient copying features in a minimum amount of office space and with maximum operational ease. To get full use of all copier features, be sure to familiarize yourself with this manual and the copier. For quick reference during copier use, keep this manual in a handy location. NOTES: copier can be used as a laser printer, a facsimile machine, and a scanner by installing optional components. However, this manual describes only the copier features.
CAUTIONS Follow the cautions below when using this copier. WARNING: fusing area is hot. Exercise care in this area when removing misfed paper. ● Do not look directly at the light source. Doing so may damage your eyes. 1 ● The CAUTION: socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible. ● Place the copier on a firm, level surface. ● Do not install the copier in a humid or dusty location.
COPIER INSTALLATION Improper installation may damage the copier. Please note the following during initial installation and whenever the copier is moved. CAUTION: If the copier is moved from a cool place to a warm place, condensation may form inside the copier. Operation in this condition will cause poor copy quality and malfunctions. Leave the copier at room temperature for at least 2 hours before use.
COPIER INSTALLATION Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that meets the specified voltage and current requirements (See page 89.). Also make certain the outlet is properly grounded. NOTE: Connect the copier to a power outlet which is not used for other electric appliances. If a lighting fixture is connected to the same outlet, the light may flicker. 12" (30 cm) A small amount of ozone is produced within the copier during operation.
MAIN FEATURES 1 High-speed laser copying ● ● GETTING STARTED 2 High-quality digital image ● ● ● 3 First-copy time at 600 dpi (not in the super photo mode) is only 4.8 seconds (except when recovering from a power save mode or immediately after power on). Copying speed is 23 copies/min. (AR-235) or 27 copies/min. (AR-275) at 600 dpi (not in the super photo mode), which lends itself for business use, providing improvement in working efficiency.
MAIN FEATURES 4 ● 1 Optional features ● ● ● ● ● ● 6 The copier is equipped with a memory buffer allowing the copier to scan an original once and make up to 999 copies of the scanned image. This improves workflow, reduces operating noise from the copier and reduces wear and tear on the scanning mechanism, which provides for a higher reliability. An optional single pass feeder (SPF) allows automatic document feeding of up to 30 sheets of single-sided originals.

EXPOSURE ADJUSTMENT This copier has five exposure modes to choose from: AUTO, TEXT, TEXT/PHOTO, PHOTO, and SUPER PHOTO. Auto This is the standard initial setting for this copier. In this mode, the characteristics of an original being copied are "read" by the exposure system, and exposure adjustments are made automatically. This optimizes the contrast of the copied images by reducing the effect of colored or shaded background areas.

ROTATION COPYING If rotation of original image is enabled using a key operator program, the image of the original will rotate when the orientation of the original does not match that of the copy paper. Rotation copying will function only if the auto paper select mode or the auto image mode has been selected. Even if rotation of original image is disabled using a key operator program, rotation copying will function when the 2 in 1 or 4 in 1 function is selected.
