Orientation of Originals
You can place original either vertically or horizontally. Always align the top edge of your original 
with the back edge of the platen glass (upper left corner) or the feeder.
Staple copy: place the original with its top upward
IMPORTANT
•The copies are stapled at the part equivalent to the upper left side of the original.
NOTE
•If the top edge of the original is not aligned with the back edge of the platen glass, prints may not be made correctly, 
depending on the mode you have set.
•A4, B5 and A5-size originals can be placed either vertically or horizontally. However, the scanning speed for 
horizontally placed originals is somewhat slower than for vertically placed originals. You can place originals horizontally 
when printing with Preset Zoom mode, such as when processing A4   
→ A3  .•Horizontally placed A4, B5 and A5-size originals are referred to as A4  , B5   and A5  .•A3 and B4-size originals must be placed horizontally.•To get the same output result as when the original is placed on the platen glass, place it upside-down and face up. 
However, when using the stapler function, the Finisher rotates the output automatically.

Placing an Original on the Platen Glass
You should use the platen glass when scanning books and other bound originals, heavy or 
lightweight paper originals, transparencies, etc., into memory.
IMPORTANT
•When the optional feeder is attached, the original-size-detection function of the platen glass does not work.
1Lift up the feeder/platen glass cover.
IMPORTANT
•The iR2000 is equipped with an open/close sensor of the platen glass cover. When placing originals on the platen 
glass, lift the platen glass cover about 30 cm. If the sensor does not detach from the platen glass cover, the size of 
originals may not be detected correctly.

2Place your original.
The surface that you want to scan into memory must be placed face down. Align the corner of the original 
with the top left corner (the arrow) of the platen glass.
Place books and other bound originals on the platen glass in the same way.
When enlarging A4, B5 or A5-size originals to A3 or B4-size paper, place the original horizontally on the 
platen glass, and align it with the A4  , B5   or A5   marks.

3Gently lower the feeder/platen glass cover.
CAUTION
•Close the feeder/platen glass cover gently, to avoid catching your hand, as this may result in personal injury.
•Do not press down the feeder/platen glass cover with force when scanning thick books. This may damage the 
platen glass and cause personal injury.
IMPORTANT
•When placing originals on the platen glass, the size of the original is detected after the platen glass cover has been 
lowered. (For iR2000 only.) Be sure to lower the platen glass cover before copying.
•STMT size and postcards cannot be detected. Follow the instructions on the display and specify the original size or 
select the paper.
NOTE
•Remove the original from the platen glass when scanning is completed.

Placing Originals in the Optional Feeder (ADF-J1)
If the machine is equipped with the optional feeder, place a stack of originals, and press   (Start). 
The machine automatically scans them into memory.
You can place the following originals in the original supply tray:
•Weight:  38 to 128 g/m
2 (set the originals one-by-one when they are very thin
(38 to 52 g/m2) or very thick (105 to 128 g/m2))
•Size: A3  , B4  , A4  , A4  , B5  , B5  , A5  , A5  , B6  , 11 ✕ 17  , LGL  , 
LTR  , LTR , and STMT  .
•Tray capacity: 50 sheets (A4 or smaller)
25 sheets (B4 or larger)
IMPORTANT
•Do not place the following types of originals in the feeder:
- Originals with tears or large binding holes
- Severely curled originals or originals with sharp folds
- Clipped or stapled originals
- Carbon-backed paper or other originals which might not feed smoothly
- Transparencies and other highly transparent originals
•Avoid scanning the same original using the feeder more than approximately 30 times. From being scanned repeatedly, 
the original gets folded or torn, which may cause a paper jam.
•If the feeder rollers are soiled from scanning an original written with pencil, perform the Feeder Cleaning procedure. 
(See “Cleaning the Feeder,” on p. 5-23.)
1Neatly place your originals face up in the original supply tray.
When enlarging A4, B5 or A5-size originals to A3 or B4-size paper, place your originals horizontally.
Place the original as far as it will go, until the original set indicator is lit.
A beep sounds when the original is set correctly.

Making Prints Using the Stack Bypass
When making prints on transparencies, or non-standard size paper stock, load the paper stock in 
the stack bypass.
IMPORTANT
•Note the following points when using the stack bypass:
- Copy quantity: 1 to about 100 sheets (80 g/m2)
- Paper size: 100 mm x 148 mm to 297 mm x 432 mm
- Paper weight: 60 g/m
2 to 128 g/m2
- Curl down paper before use. (Curl amount: less than 10 mm for normal paper; less than 5 mm for heavy paper.) 
There are some types of paper stock which may meet the above specifications but cannot be fed in the stack bypass.
•Do not load different size/type paper at the same time.•It is recommended not to use the paper with anything printed on the back.•When using the label sheets load them one by one on the stack bypass.•When printing on envelopes, empty the output tray when at most 10 printed envelopes accumulate in the tray.•For details about paper sizes when using the stack bypass, see “Setting the Standard Paper for the Stack Bypass,” on 
p. 3-9.
■Standard Size
You can select standard A or B series paper, or inch-size paper.
■Free Size
You can place non-standard size paper (100 mm x 148 mm to 297 mm x 432 mm).
