COPYING A LARGE NUMBER OF 
ORIGINALS AT ONCE (Job Build)
When copying a very large number of originals, this function allows you to divide the originals into sets and feed each 
set through the automatic document feeder one set at a time.
Use this function when you wish to copy all of the originals as a single job but the number of originals exceeds the 
maximum number that can be inserted.
This function is convenient when you wish to sort copies of a large number of originals into multiple sets. Because all 
originals are copied as a single job, you are saved the trouble of sorting the copies that would be required if the originals 
were divided into separate copy jobs.
When scanning originals in sets, divide the sheets so that no set has more than the number of paper that can be loaded, 
and then scan from the set with the first page. The settings that you select for the first set can be used for all remaining sets.
Sorting the copies of a large number of originals into 2 sets
1
Insert the originals face up in the 
document feeder tray.
Insert the originals all the way into the document feeder tray. 
Multiple originals can be placed in the document feeder tray. 
The stack of originals must not be higher than the indicator line 
on the tray.

USING TWO MACHINES TO MAKE A LARGE 
NUMBER OF COPIES (Tandem Copy)
Two machines connected to the same network can be used to run a large copy job in parallel.
Each machine prints half of the copies, reducing the time required to complete the job.
Master machine and slave machine
In the following explanation, the master machine is the machine that is used to scan the originals. The slave machine is 
another machine specified in the master machine that only helps print the copies; it is not used to scan the originals.
Before using tandem copy
 To use this function, two machines must be connected to your network. Even if more machines are connected to the 
network, this function can only be used to have one other machine share a job.
 To use the tandem copy function, Tandem Connection Setting must be configured in the system settings 
(administrator).
 When configuring the system settings in the master machine, the IP address of the slave machine is required. For the 
port number, it is best to use the initial setting (50001). Unless you experience difficulty with this setting, do not 
change the port number. The tandem settings should be configured by your network administrator. If the master 
machine and slave machine will switch roles, configure the IP address of the master machine in the slave machine. 
The same port number can be used for both machines.
