Creating a custom copy job (job build)
The custom copy job or job build is used to combine one or more sets of original documents into a single copy job. Each
set may be scanned using different job parameters. When a copy job is submitted and Custom Job is enabled, the
scanner scans the first set of original documents using the supplied parameters, and then it scans the next set with the
same or different parameters.
The definition of a set depends on the scan source:
If you scan a document on the scanner glass, then a set consists of one page.
If you scan multiple pages using the ADF, then a set consists of all scanned pages until the ADF becomes empty.
If you scan one page using the ADF, then a set consists of one page.
For example:
1Load an original document faceup, short edge first into the ADF or facedown on the scanner glass.
Note: Do not load postcards, photos, small items, transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (such as magazine
clippings) into the ADF. Place these items on the scanner glass.
2If you are loading a document into the ADF, then adjust the paper guides.
3From the home screen, navigate to:
Copy > Options > Custom Job > On > Done > Copy It
When the end of a set is reached, the scan screen appears. Copying95

and manually load the paper in the multipurpose feeder.
When “Copy to” is set to Auto Size Match, each copy matches the paper size of the original document. If a matching
paper size is not in one of the trays, then Paper size not found appears and prompts to load a paper in a
tray or multipurpose feeder.
Copies
This option allows you to set the number of copies to be printed. Copying97

“Copy from” and “Copy to” paper sizes automatically changes the scale to keep all the original document information
on your copy.
