							Changing the copy-collation setting
You can set the device to automatically collate multiple copies into sets. For example, if you
are making two copies of three pages and the automatic collation is on, the pages print in
this order: 1,2,3,1,2,3. If automatic collation is off, the pages print in this order: 1,1,2,2,3,3.

the device makes only one copy and a message appears notifying you of the change. If that
happens, use one of the following methods to finish the job:
●Split the job into smaller jobs that contain fewer pages.
●Make only one copy of the document at a time.
