Copying from the Bypass Tray

Use the bypass tray to copy onto OHP transparencies, adhesive labels, translucent paper, postcards and copy paper that cannot be loaded in the paper trays.

Important

  • When the duplex unit is attached, the default is [1 Sided 2 Sided]. When copying from the bypass tray, select [1 Sided] for copying in [Dup./Combine/Series] (for example [1 Sided 1 Sided] or [2 Sided 1 Sided]). You can change the initial settings. See “Programming Defaults in Initial Display”.

  • Paper has a vertical length of 90-305 mm (3.6-12 inch) and a horizontal length of 148-457.2 mm (5.9-18 inch) can be copied from the bypass tray.

  • The machine can detect the following sizes as regular size copy paper: A3Landscape, A4Landscape, 8” × 13”Landscape. If you want to use the size of paper other than the above, be sure to specify the size.

  • When copying on OHP transparencies or paper heavier than 81 g/m2 (about 70 kg, 21 lb.), you need to specify the type and size of paper with “Special Original”.

  • The maximum number of sheets you can load at the same time depends on paper type. The maximum number of sheets should not exceed the upper limit.

  • When copying paper lighter than 59g/m2 or tracing paper, you need to specify the paper type.

  • When paper larger than 433 mm (17.1 inch) in size is used, the paper may become wrinkled, may not be fed into the machine, or may cause paper jams.

If the guides are not flush against the copy paper, images might be skewed or paper misfeeds might occur.

Do not stack paper over the limit mark, otherwise images might be skewed or paper misfeeds might occur.

Swing out the extender to support paper sizes larger than A4Landscape or 81/2” × 11”Landscape.

Fan paper to get air between the sheets and avoid a multi-sheet feed.
