Bypass copying on standard size paper

Standard size paper can be used for bypass copying. In this section, the procedure is described

with A4 size thick paper (90 g/m ) placed on the bypass tray as an example.

P .51 “Preparation - Registering paper size placed on bypass tray”

Place paper straight on the bypass tray face down. Then align the

side guides to the paper length while holding (A).

y Be sure that the stack height of paper does not exceed the indicators of the side

guides.

y Fan the stack of paper well before placing it on the bypass tray.

y Do not push the paper forcibly into the entrance of the bypass feeder. This could

cause a paper misfeed.

When you place paper of a larger size, pull out the paper holder before you start bypass

copying.

Using Bypass Tray 55

HOW TO MAKE COPIES

Check if the lamp of the paper size placed on bypass tray is lit. If

not, press the [COPY] button several times until the lamp of the

desired paper size is lit.

Press the media type setting button until the lamp of the media type

placed on the bypass tray is lit.

You can select the media type from the following three:

THICK PAPER 1: Thick paper (81 to 105 g/m )

THICK PAPER 2: Thick paper (106 to 163 g/m ), sticker labels

TRANSPARENCY: Overhead transparencies

y You do not need to select the media type when you use plain paper (64 to 80 g/m ) or

tracing paper.

y If you select a different media type from the one you placed on the bypass tray, this

could cause a paper jam or the quality of the copied image could be lowered.

Place the original.

56 Using Bypass Tray

Select the other copy modes as required, and then press the

[START] button.

Copying starts.

When you make copies on overhead transparencies using the bypass tray, pick up the

transparencies which have exited onto the receiving tray one by one. If the transparen-

cies pile up, they may become curled and not be good for projection.

y When the paper on the bypass tray has run out during copying, copying continues

with the paper of the same size in the drawer as the one on the bypass tray. (If the

size of the paper on the bypass tray has not been registered in advance, however,

copying stops. In this case, add paper to the bypass tray and press the [START] but-

ton to resume copying.)

y When bypass copying has finished, the [FUNCTION CLEAR] lamp blinks. Press the

[FUNCTION CLEAR] button so that the paper size setting for the bypass tray will be

cleared. Press the [FUNCTION CLEAR] button again so that bypass copying will be

switched to copying with drawer feeding.

Paper Selection

You can select the size of copy paper in two ways; one is automatic paper selection in which the

equipment automatically selects copy paper of the same size as the original, and the other is

manual paper selection in which you can select the desired paper size manually.

Automatic paper selection (APS):

The equipment detects the size of the original placed and automatically selects copy paper of

the same size as the original. This function is enabled only when standard size originals (A3, A4,

A4-R, A5-R, B4, B5, B5-R) are used and also the Automatic Document Feeder (optional) is

used.

Manual paper selection:

You can select the desired size of copy paper manually. This function can be used in a case the

APS cannot be used, such as when originals are non-standard sizes or overhead transparen-

cies, or when an original is placed on the original glass.

Automatic paper selection (APS) can be used only when you place originals on the Automatic

Document Feeder (optional).

Automatic paper selection (APS)

When you place a standard size original on the Automatic Document Feeder (optional), the

equipment detects its size and automatically selects copy paper of the same size as the original.

The standard sizes the equipment can detect are as follows: A3, A4, A4-R, A5-R, B4, B5, B5-R

The equipment may not be able to correctly detect the size of the originals listed below. Use

manual paper selection for the following originals:

y Highly transparent ones (e.g. overhead transparencies, tracing paper)

y Wholly dark ones or ones with dark borders

y Non-standard size ones (e.g. newspapers, magazines)

TROUBLESHOOTING

When Message Lamp is Lit/Blinking

Message lamps on the control panel are lit or blink depending on the status of the equipment.

Each lamp shows the following status:

1. Cover open lamp

This blinks when any cover of the equipment, such as the front cover, the side cover or the

upper cover of the Automatic Document Feeder (optional), is not securely closed. Close it

securely.

2. Paper empty lamp

This blinks when the paper in a drawer or on the bypass tray has run out. Add paper. For

how to place paper, see the following pages for the details:

3. Toner lamp

This shows you the current status of the toner cartridge by means of the cartridge detecting

function and the toner remaining check function (only when a TOSHIBA-recommended toner

cartridge is used) as follows:

Lit: There is now little toner left in the toner cartridge, or the toner cartridge is not installed

correctly.

Blinking: The toner in the toner cartridge has run out.

y When the toner lamp is lit, there is still a little toner remaining in the toner cartridge. Do

not replace the toner cartridge until the toner lamp starts blinking.

y It occasionally happens that the toner lamp may not light because the toner remaining in

the cartridge does not lie evenly.

y When the toner lamp is lit, it is advisable to purchase a new TOSHIBA-recommended

cartridge to prepare for its replacement.

y When the toner lamp is blinking and the toner in the toner cartridge has run out, replace

the toner cartridge with a new one.

P .45 “Precautions for Automatic Document Feeder (optional)”

78 When Message Lamp is Lit/Blinking

When a toner cartridge other than the one we recommend is used, neither the cartridge

detecting function nor the toner remaining check function can be utilized. In this case, the

toner lamp blinks even if the toner cartridge is installed in the equipment.

See the following for the difference between when using a TOSHIBA-recommended toner

cartridge and another type:

Recommended toner cartridges

To assure an optimal printing performance, we recommend that you use TOSHIBA toner cartridges.

If you use a TOSHIBA-recommended toner cartridge, you can utilize the following two check functions of

this equipment:

Cartridge detecting function: This function checks if the toner cartridge is correctly installed and notifies

you if it is not.

Toner-remaining check function: This function notifies you when there is little toner remaining in the

cartridge.

Any copying or printing operation is available even if you are using a toner cartridge other than the one

we recommend. In that case, however, the equipment cannot detect whether the toner cartridge is

installed or not and therefore the toner lamp is lit even if the toner cartridge is correctly installed. You can-

not utilize the toner remaining check function either.

If you are using a toner cartridge other than the one we recommend and you feel annoyed by this lighting

lamp, contact your service representative. Your service technician will cancel the cartridge detecting func-

tion set by default. Remember once this function has been cancelled, you will not be able to utilize the two

functions mentioned above even if you change the cartridge to the one we recommend.
