[. . . ] Adjust the original side guides to match the size of the original. AQP004S Note If the image position is not correct, adjust it using the {Image Position} keys. See p. 21 "Adjusting the Print Image Position". Note You can only place one original at a time. If the image density is too dark or too light, adjust the image density using the {Image Density} key. See p. 23 "Adjusting the Print Image Density". 18 Standard Printing D Enter the number of prints required with the number keys. 1 AQP005S Note Up to 9999 prints can be entered at a time. To change the number entered, press the {Clear/Stop} key and enter the new number. E Press the {Print Start} key. AQP006S Note After printing is completed, the same number of prints is automatically set for the next job. To stop the machine during the multi-print run, press the {Clear/Stop} key. To return the machine to the initial condition after printing, press the {Clear Modes/Recovery} key. 19 Operation After Printing 1 A Lower the paper feed tray adjustment lever and remove the paper from the paper feed tray. B Remove the prints from the paper delivery tray. C Turn off the main switch. 20 Adjusting the Print Image Position Adjusting the Print Image Position After master making, you can adjust the print image position to suit your needs. There are two ways to do this: Note When you shift the image forwards, leave a margin (more than 5 mm, 0. 2") at the leading edge. If there is no margin, paper might wrap around the drum and cause a misfeed. 1 Shifting the Image Position Forwards or Backwards Adjust the image position using the {Image Position} keys. Shifting the Image Position to the Right or Left Adjust the image position by shifting the paper in the paper feed tray. The right or left {Image Position} keys shift the image about 1 mm, 0. 04" each time they are pressed. However, the indicator will only register a change when the image position is shifted about 5 mm, 0. 2". Shifting the Print Image Position Forwards or Backwards B Press the {Proof} key to check the image position. AQP004S GRFORW0E * Paper feed direction A Press the left {Image Position} key to move the image forwards, and the right key to move it backwards. BQA003S 21 Operation Shifting the Print Image Position to the Right or Left 1 Note The image position can be shifted up to about 10 mm, 0. 4" each way. B Lock the paper delivery side plates C Press the {Proof} key to check the image position. and shift the tray adjustment lever back to the paper feeding position. GRLEFT0E * Paper feed direction A Lower the paper feed tray adjust Shifting the image to the right Shift the paper towards the front of the machine. ment lever and unlock the paper feed side plates. AQP004S Shifting the image to the left Shift the paper towards the back of the machine. 22 Adjusting the Print Image Density Adjusting the Print Image Density You can adjust the print image density to suit your needs. There are two ways to do this: After Making a Master 1 Before Making a Master Adjust the image density using the {Image Density} key. After Making a Master Adjust the image density using the {Speed} key. A Press the {Speed} key to decrease the printing speed. Press it again to bring the printing speed back to Fast. Before Making a Master A Use the {Image Density} key before pressing the {Master Making} key. BQA005S Note The faster the printing speed becomes, the lighter the printing density is. If you want darker prints, decrease the printing speed. BQA004S Note In addition to Normal, Darker and Lighter modes, you can also select Tint mode to make halftone prints. When the Lighter mode indicator is blinking, Tint mode is selected. 23 Operation Changing the Printing Speed 1 Use the {Speed} key to adjust the speed of the machine to suit the image density and paper type. A Press the {Speed} key to select the printing speed. BQA005S Note The following speeds are available: · Fast: 90 sheets/minute · Slow: 60 sheets/minute The default is 90 sheets/minute. The faster the printing speed becomes, the lighter the printing density is, and vice versa. Select the slower speed when you are printing on very thick or very thin paper. 24 Stopping the Machine during the Multi-print Run Stopping the Machine during the Multi-print Run When You Want to Stop the Machine during the Multi-print Run and Print the Next Original When You Want to Change the Number of Prints Entered or Check the Completed Prints 1 A Press the {Clear/Stop} key. A Press the {Clear/Stop} key. AQP010S AQP010S B Place the new original in the document feeder. B Change the number of prints or check the completed prints. Note When you change the number of prints, you can re-enter the number with the number keys after pressing the {Clear/Stop} key. C Enter the number of prints and press the {Master Making} key. C Press the {Print Start} key. AQP003S AQP006S 25 Operation Preset Reduce/Enlarge--Reducing and Enlarging Using Preset Ratios 1 You can select a preset ratio for printing. You can select one of 7 preset ratios (3 enlargement ratios, 4 reduction ratios). You can select a ratio regardless of the size of an original or printing paper. With some ratios, parts of the image might not be printed or margins will appear on prints. Prints can be reduced or enlarged as follows: GRREDU0E Reduction (Metric version) Indicator GRENLA0E Original Size *1 Print Size Reduction Ratio 93% 93% A4VB5 Note The centre and the leading edge of the print image do not shift when a print image is made with this function.

Note If the image position is not correct, adjust it using the {Image Position} key (see p. 21 "Shifting the Print Image Position Forwards or Backwards") or by moving the position of the paper (see p. 22 "Shifting the Print Image Position to the Right or Left"). 51/2" × 81/2" V 81/2" × 11" 51/2" × 81/2" 81/2" × 11" 129% 81/2" × 81/2" × 14" V 14" 11" × 17" 11" × 17" 121% F Press the {Print Start} key. 27 Operation Printing on Different Types of Paper Thickness 1 Depending on the thickness of the paper that you are printing on, you need to perform the following steps. B Make sure that the paper feed side plates touch the paper lightly. Feed Roller Pressure Lever A Shift the feed roller pressure le- ver to the Thick or Standard paper position. C When you have finished printing, shift the feed roller pressure lever back to the Standard paper position. Note Shift the lever according to the paper weights as shown in the following table. Metric version Thick 81. 6­127. 9 g/m2 Inch version 21. 7­34. 0 lb. Stand 35­81. 5 g/m2 9. 3­21. 6 lb. ard If the feed roller pressure lever is at the Standard paper position, and paper misfeeds occur even though you are using paper within the specified range, move the lever to the Thick paper position. 28 Printing on Different Types of Paper Thickness Separation Pressure Lever A To prevent double-feed, adjust the paper separation pressure using the separation pressure lever. 1 Note Paper separation pressure can be adjusted according to the paper weights as shown in the following table. Position 1 Metric version Inch version Use this position if the leading edge of the paper is curled, or when the paper does not feed properly at Position 2. 35­47. 0 g/m2, 81. 6­127. 9 g/m2 47. 1­81. 5 g/m2 9. 3 ­ 12. 5 lb. , 21. 7­34. 0 lb.
