DUAL PAGE COPYING
The DUAL PAGE COPY feature produces separate copies of two
documents placed side by side on the document glass. It is
especially useful when copying books and other bound documents
and can be used with the MARGIN SHIFT feature. If an optional
duplex module is installed, this feature can also be used with two-
sided copying.
1

center of the two pages aligned with the paper size index
 81/2. Close the document cover.
lSet the page to be copied first on the left part of the document
glass.
2
Press the DUAL PAGE COPY key.
l8-1/2 x 11 sized copy paper will be automatically selected.
lTo leave a binding margin on the copy, press the MARGIN
SHIFT key. See page 18.  The MARGIN SHIFT feature applies
only to the left page on the document glass.
lTo erase shadows caused by document binding, use the EDGE
ERASE feature. See next page.
lTo perform two-sided copying when an optional duplex module
is installed, use the ORIGINAL TO COPY key to select EVEN
NUMBER.

1
Place the original face down on the document glass and
close the document cover.
lIf an optional document feeder (ADF or RADF) is installed, place
the originals face up in the document feeder tray.
NOTE:
When an optional ADF or RADF is used, the amount of edge erase
will vary depending on the copy ratio. However, when the document
glass is used, the amount will be constant.
2
Press the EDGE ERASE key.
3
Ensure that the desired paper tray is selected.
lThe edge erase mode will work only when standard size copy
paper is used.
4
Make all other desired copier selections and press the
START key.
lWhen using the document glass, the area to be erased is simply
a specified portion of the copy paper. By repositioning the
original, the portion of it which falls within the area to be erased
can be shifted.
When using an optional document feeder (ADF or RADF), the
original is always fed to the same position on the document
glass, so the area to be erased is fixed.
