A small amount of ozone is produced within the copier during operation. The emission  
level is insufficient to cause any health hazard.  
2
NOTE:  
The present recommended long term exposure limit for ozone is 0.1 ppm (0.2 mg/m3)  
calculated as an 8 hr. time-weighted average concentration.  
However, since the small amount that is emitted may have an objectionable odor, it is  
advisable to place the copier in a ventilated area.  
CAUTIONS ON HANDLING  
Be careful in handling the copier as follows to maintain the performance of this copier.  
Do not drop the copier, subject it to shock  
or strike it against any object.  
Do not expose the drum cartridge to direct  
sunlight.  
Doing so will damage the surface (green portion)  
of the drum cartridge, causing smudges on copies.  
Store spare supplies such as drum cartridges andTD cartridges in a dark place  
without removing from the package before use.  
If they are exposed to direct sunlight, smudges on copies may result.  
Do not touch the surface (green portion) of the drum cartridge.  
Doing so will damage the surface of the cartridge, causing smudges on copies.

NORMAL COPYING  
This copier has two document input stations - a single pass feeder (SPF) for automatic document  
feeding and an original table for manual handling of documents. The SPF is designed to hold  
up to 30 originals measuring from 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" to 8-1/2" x 14" and weighing from 14 to 23  
lbs.  
Ensure that paper of the desired size is set in the paper tray. See page 13, LOADING  
COPY PAPER. When copying onto paper larger than 8-1/2" x 11" size, pull out the  
1
paper output tray extension.  
3
Turn the power switch on.  
2
Place the original(s) face up in the document feeder tray or face down on the original  
table.  
3
A. When using the SPF:  
(1) Make sure that no original is left on the original table.  
(2) Adjust the original guides to the size of originals.  
(3) Set the originals face up in the document feeder tray.  
G
Before feeding originals in the document feeder tray, be sure to remove any  
staples or paper clips from them.  
Before placing curled or wavy originals into the document feeding tray, be  
G
sure to flatten them. If not, original misfeeds may result.  
The SPF ( ) indicator on the operation panel will light up. If this indicator  
G
does not light up, the originals are not properly set or the SPF is not properly  
closed.  
Badly damaged originals may misfeed in the SPF. It is recommended that  
G
such originals be copied from the original table.  
Special originals such as transparency film should not be fed through the  
G
SPF, but should be placed directly on the original table.

This chapter describes misfeed removal and troubleshooting.  
MISFEED REMOVAL  
When the misfeed ( ) indicator blinks or  
blinks in the display, the copier will stop because  
of a misfeed.  
If a misfeed occurs when using the SPF, a number may appear in the display after a minus  
sign. This indicates the number of the originals that must be returned to the document feeder  
tray after a misfeed. Return the required number of originals. Then this number will disappear  
when copying is resumed or the clear ( ) key is pressed.  
When the SPF misfeeds an original sheet, the copier will stop and the SPF misfeed ( ) indicator  
will blink, while the misfeed ( ) indicator will remain off. For a misfeed of originals in the SPF,  
see E Misfeed in the SPFon page 37.  
Open the side cover while pressing the side cover open button.
