25 COLOR FUNCTIONS 23

26 FULL COLOR COPY/BLACK COPY The Full Color Copy function overlays the four colors (yellow, magenta, cyan, and black) to make copies in colors close to those of originals. The Black Copy function makes copies in black regardless of colors of originals. Three fundamental colors Yellow, magenta, and cyan (three fundamental colors) can be combined to express the seven colors shown in the figure below. If yellow, magenta, and cyan are overlaid, black is created. However, this copier uses the black toner to express black because the black made from the three fundamental colors slightly differs from actual black in the strict sense. This copier adjusts the amount of the yellow, magenta, and cyan toner to express green close to yellow (yellowish green) or cyan (bluish green). Difference between greens when combining yellow and cyan FULL COLOR COPY/BLACK COPY 24

27 FULL COLOR COPY/BLACK COPY Press the key to select the Full Color Copy or Black Copy mode. The Full Color Copy, Single Color, Auto Color Select, and Black Copy modes are switched in that order each time you press the key.

28 SINGLE COLOR SINGLE COLOR This function makes copies in a specified color. For single color copying, you can choose yellow, red, magenta, blue, cyan, or green. Although still monochrone, some colors you select may be created with 2 toners. This is because yellow, magenta and cyan are created with a single toner, while red, blue and green use two toners. Cyan Magenta Yellow Red Blue Green Press a Color key to select a color you want use. You cannot select the White key. When you do not wish to select any other functions, press the Start key to begin copying. After selecting the Single Color mode using the key, you can also use a Color key to select a color you want to use. When you select the Black key, the color mode is set to Black Copy. 26

29 COLOR CONVERSION COLOR CONVERSION Copies an original by replacing a color with another one or removing a color in the original. This function can be used only if your copier has a unit for two-sided copying. When you specify the Color Conversion function, the color mode is set to Full Color Copy. You can convert up to eight colors. When you convert eight colors, however, four colors of the eight are changed into White, resulting in the same as removing these four colors. The color range to be converted can be adjusted within 5 levels. For example, when you specify yellow with the color width set to Wide, other colors close to yellow, such as orange and yellowish green, are also converted. When you set the color width to Narrow, only yellow is converted. The color width can be adjusted with the user tools. See page 104, USER TOOLS, Color Conversion. You can specify the following eight colors: yellow, magenta, cyan, green, blue, red, white, and black. c 27

49 PAPER If you have two or more trays with the same size paper, the copier can be programmed to use the other trays when paper runs out. See page 106, USER TOOLS, Auto Tray Shift. This saves interrupting a copy run to replenish paper. Note that if you choose the Remarked Paper setting (USER TOOLS, Remarked Paper, see page 108), you must specify the same setting for the other trays. Setting paper in the portrait direction (Single-sided) When setting paper thinner than 64 g/m 2, 17.1 lb in the 1500-sheet or 1000-sheet tray unit or bypass feed table, set it as shown in the figure below. Thin paper is divided into the vertical and horizontal types depending on the texture flow direction. If you set thin paper in the reverse direction, a paper jam might occur. Since A3, B4, 11" x 17", and 8 1 /2" x 14" sizes of thin paper are set in the lengthwise direction in this copier, they must be of the vertical type. Set paper in the bypass feed table in the reverse direction to that above when you make two-sided copies; set in the sidewise direction paper of which texture flow direction is vertical and in the lengthwise direction paper of which texture flow direction is horizontal. 47

60 BASIC OPERATION BASIC OPERATION This chapter describes the basic operation for copying originals. Before you start, press the Clear Modes/Stand-by key to clear the previous settings. If user codes are turned on: ➊ Enter the user code (6 digits or less) using the Number keys, and press the Recall/Enter key. The copier enters the ready condition. Input user code (Number key>#) Code: Set your originals. Specify the basic functions (color selection, image density adjustment, original image type selection, copy paper selection, and auto reduce/enlarge). If you do not specify your settings, copy operations are performed in the copier s default settings shown below: Full color copy, Auto Image Density, Auto (Photo/Letter) mode, Auto Paper Select, and Full Size Enter the number of copies using the Number keys. If you enter a wrong value, press the Clear/Stop key and reenter a correct value. 58

61 BASIC OPERATION Press the Start key. The copier starts the copy run. To temporarily stop the copy run, press the Clear/Stop key once. To cancel the copy run, press the Clear/Stop key twice. When you press the Clear/Stop key twice, the entered copy number is also cleared. To reset the copier to the initial condition, press the Clear Modes/Stand-by key. You can change the copier s settings for the basic functions. See page 103, User Tool Menu The copier resets itself if you do not use it for a certain period of time after the last copy run. This function is called Auto Reset. Changing the time after which the copier resets itself See page 108, USER TOOL, Auto reset time set Specifying whether the copier enters the Stand-by mode at the same time as the Auto Reset function is executed see page 108, USER TOOLS, Standby mode after auto reset The Auto Reset function might not be executed in the following cases: When there are originals still left. When a copy remains in the sorter stapler bin. 59

62 SETTING ORIGINALS SETTING ORIGINALS Set your originals on the exposure glass (platen glass) or optional document feeder. Set them properly based on the original type and copy operation. For cautions about originals, see ORIGINALS. See page 42. Align the top of an original to the scale on the rear side. When setting an original, different methods must be used depending on the original type and selected function. Some functions might output different copy results depending on the original direction. See function descriptions for details. Setting originals on the exposure glass (platen glass) Lift the platen cover or the optional document feeder. Set the original face down on the exposure glass (platen glass). The original should be aligned to the rear left corner. Lower the platen cover or the optional document feeder. 60

63 SETTING ORIGINALS Setting originals in the optional document feeder For original sizes and feeder capacity, see ORIGINALS. See page 42. Do not stack originals above the limit mark. When copying thin originals, set them sheet by sheet in the optional document feeder so that they will not be damaged by a multi-sheet feed (several sheets are fed simultaneously). When setting thin originals (40-52 g/m 2, lb), you must change the copier s settings. See page 111, USER TOOLS, ADF: Thin paper mode. When setting two or more originals in the optional document feeder Adjust the guide to the original size. Tap the originals and set them face up into the optional document feeder. When setting one original at a time in the optional document feeder Set an original in the optional document feeder and then set the next one while the Auto Feed indicator is lit. After the second one, the originals are fed automatically without pressing the Start key. 61

64 SETTING ORIGINALS When setting different size originals in the optional document feeder Before you start, you must change the copier s settings. See page 112, USER TOOLS, ADF: Different sized originals feeding. The original thickness that can be set is 52 to 80 g/m 2, 13.8 to 21.2 lb. It takes more time to perform this operation because the original size is detected for each sheet. Small originals might be copied in a slanting direction because the guide cannot be adjusted to their sizes. Set the original so that the left and rear edges match the scale. Important When setting different width originals, set the wider original under the narrower one. If you set them in a wrong order, their sizes are not detected properly. Adjust the guide to the larger original size. Set the originals face up in the optional document feeder. 62

However, when you select the Black key, the color mode is set to Black. If you do not set any other functions, press the Start key to start a copy operation. Image Density Adjustment This function adjusts the copy density based on the original type. The image density adjustment function is divided into the following four types: Auto Image Density Automatically make copies in appropriate background density. Background Density Control Adjusts the background density to a lighter or darker setting. You can specify 9 steps of density. When you set Background Density Control mode, Auto Image Density mode is cleared. See page 33, Background Density Control. Manual Image Density Selection Makes whole copies lighter or darker. You can specify 7 levels of density. 65

68 BASIC FUNCTIONS Combined Auto & Manual Image Density Selection If you use Manual Image Density Select to increase image density, the background may come out standard. Therefore, use this function to mask out dark backgrounds at the same time as increasing image density (for example with newspaper originals). When adjusting the density Adjust the density using the Lighter and Darker keys. The density indicator moves. If you do not set any other functions, press the Start key to copy. If copies do not come out as you would like, try adjusting the background density before performing the Manual Image Density Selection. See page 33, Background Density Control. 66

69 Original Image Type Selection This function detects the letter parts and photo parts of an original. This function is divided into the following three types: Auto (Letter/Photo) mode For copying images containing a mixture of photos, pictures and text. BASIC FUNCTIONS Letter mode This mode should be used for copying originals consisting of characters. Photo mode This mode should be used for copying photo or picture originals. When Auto (Letter/Photo) mode or Photo mode is selected, the full color photo type is divided into the following three types: Printed Photo - Use this mode when originals are photographs printed in magazines. Glossy Photo - Use this mode when originals are photographs. Copied Photo - Use this mode when copying color copies. You cannot select the photo type when you select Black Copy or Single Color mode in Color Selection or Black Copy/Single Color mode in the user tools Auto Image Density. You can change the copier s settings for these functions. See page 103, USER TOOLS, Copier s settings for photo type (Photo mode)/(auto (Letter/Photo) mode). Select the original type using the Original key. Press the Original key repeatedly until you reach the mode you require Auto, Letter or Photo.

Margin Adjustment Problem Cause Action Parts of an image are not copied. The specified margin width is too large. The margin is too narrow on the opposite side of the original binding margin. Specify a smaller margin width. You can specify it in the range of 1 to 20 mm. See page 81, Margin Adjustment. 141

144 IF YOUR COPIER DOES NOT OPERATE AS YOU WANT Combine 2 Originals Problem Cause Action Parts of an image are not copied, or an unnecessary margin is made. Originals larger than A4, 8 1 /2" x 11" are set. The selected paper size does not fit the original size. Originals of different sizes and directions are set. Set A4, B5, A5, B6, 8 1 /2" x 11" or 5 1 /2" x 8 1 /2" originals. Confirm the paper size that fits the original size. See page 85, Combine 2 Originals. You can reduce/enlarge and combine copies after determining the magnification. Originals of different sizes and directions cannot be combined. Copy them to make the originals of the same size before you combine them. Copies are made in a wrong order. Originals are set in a wrong order. Set the originals with the first sheet placed on their top. See page 85, Combine 2 Originals. 142

173 IF THE PROJECTOR UNIT DOES NOT OPERATE AS YOU WANT IF THE PROJECTOR UNIT DOES NOT OPERATE AS YOU WANT This section describes the corrective actions and cleaning operations you should perform if you cannot use the projector to make copies as you want. If The Copy Image is Improper If the copy image is out of focus: The film might not be set in the holder properly. Reset the film correctly in the holder. Adjust the focus. See page 162, step 11 in SHADING. If the edge of the original image does not appear on the copy Check the size of the area that can be copied. When setting film in the holder, be sure to position the desired frame properly. For the relationship between the original film size and the copy size, see About Copying. See page 154. To extend the area that can be copied, use the glass mount film holder and focus manually. If lines appear on the copy: Dust and foreign matter might be attached to base film, a filter, a lens, a holder, the mirror unit, or the exposure glass (platen glass). Clean these parts. See page 173. The mirror unit might be moved by copier operation. Perform the shading operation again. Black lines might appear on the edge of an image depending on the way film or a holder is set. This is because the holder frame or film edge is projected on the copies. If copying from negative film, thin black lines might appear on the lighter part of the copy, even after shading. If a ring pattern appears on the copy: The ring pattern is present on the film itself, and the copier is sensitive enough to pick it up. Try the following: Open and close the film cover. Slide the film in the holder a bit. Turn the film around in the holder. (Do not flip it over.) If An Error Message Is Displayed If the message Shading error. To resume shading is displayed Some possible causes for this message are as follows. Take corrective action as shown. PROJECTOR UNIT (OPTION) OPERATION 171

174 IF THE PROJECTOR UNIT DOES NOT OPERATE AS YOU WANT When copying 35 mm positive film, the shading operation is performed with the film set in the projector. Remove the film holder and perform shading again with no film set in the projector. When copying large format film, the shading operation is performed with the Fresnel lens lifted up. Lower the Fresnel lens and perform shading again. The light path from the projector is obstructed. Do not place anything between the projector and the mirror unit so that the light path will not be obstructed. The mirror unit is not set properly. Set the mirror unit properly. See page 156, SETTING THE PROJECTOR IN POSITION. The filter (positive/negative) does not match the film type (positive/negative). Set the suitable filter that matches the film type.

208 COLOR FUNCTIONS COLOR FUNCTIONS 17

209 FULL COLOR COPY/BLACK COPY FULL COLOR COPY/BLACK COPY The Full Color Copy function overlays the four colors (yellow, magenta, cyan, and black) to make copies in colors close to those of originals. The Black Copy function makes copies in black regardless of colors of originals. Three fundamental colors Yellow, magenta, and cyan (three fundamental colors) can be combined to express the seven colors shown in the figure below. If yellow, magenta, and cyan are overlaid, black is created. However, this copier uses the black toner to express black because the black made from the three fundamental colors slightly differs from actual black in the strict sense. Green Cyan Yelow Blue Red Black Magenta This copier adjusts the amount of the yellow, magenta, and cyan toner to express green close to yellow (yellowish green) or cyan (bluish green). Difference between greens when combining yellow and cyan Green close to cyan Green Green close to yellow Cyan Magnified view Yellow 1 Touch the [Full Color] or [Black] key. When you do not set any other function, press the Start key to start a copy operation. You can adjust the overall color tone of a copy or the edges of an image. See COLOR BALANCE AD- JUSTMENT for the overall color tone of a copy, and Sharp/Soft for the edges of an image. See page 28, COLOR BALANCE ADJUSTMENT and page 31, Sharp/Soft. 18

210 SINGLE COLOR SINGLE COLOR This function makes copies in a specified color. For single color copying, you can choose yellow, red, magenta, blue, cyan, or green. Although still monochrone, some colors you select may be created with 2 toners. This is because yellow, magenta and cyan are created with a single toner, while red, blue and green use two toners. If you create a color using the user tool, you can select it as a registered color in area editing. See page 98, USER TOOLS, Create A User Color. Cyan Magenta Yellow COLOR FUNCTIONS Red Blue Green 1 Touch the [Single Color] key 2 Select a color to be copied and touch the [Exit] key. When you do not set any other function, press the Start key to start a copy operation. 19

211 COLOR CREATION COLOR CREATION Color Conversion This function converts a selected color of an original into a different color on the copy. When you specify the Color Conversion function, the color mode is set to Full Color Copy. You can convert up to four colors. However, you can convert only two colors in editing an area. The color range to be converted can be adjusted within 5 levels.

273 DESIGNATING AREAS DESIGNATING AREAS Operating the Area Designation Screen The main keys are described below. Point key... Sets a point on which the cursor is placed. Cursor key... Moves the cursor ( ). When you press the Cursor key after touching the [Scroll Screen] key, the image scrolls on the screen. OPERATION PANEL See page 14. [Scan] key... Scans an original. [Standard] key... Displays the entire image of an original on the touch panel display. [Enlarge] key... Enlarges an image displayed with the [Standard] key. The magnification changes to 150 %, 200 %, and 300 % in that order each time you touch the [Enlarge] key. The touch panel displays the scale to show the standard original dimensions. This scale is indicated in 10 mm, 1" steps using the upper right corner of an original as the criterion point. [Close] key... Connects the start and end points when the area is designated ([Polygon 1], [Polygon 2]). [Clear]... Deletes the last point you have specified. [Scroll Screen]... When you press the Cursor key in the desired direction after touching the [Scroll Screen] key, the image scrolls in the direction on the screen. 82

274 DESIGNATING AREAS How to Designate An Area You can designate an area in the four ways: If you need the standard scale in the vertical/horizontal direction when designating areas, you can enlarge a copy image and display the grids on it. See page 93, USER TOOLS, 3 User Programmable Default Mode 2, Editor Grid (Display). These grids are indicated at the same intervals as the standard scale. Rectangle Polygon 1 Polygon 2 Closed Loop Number of areas that can be designated You can designate up to 300 points; you can specify up to 150 points when designating an area with Rectangle and 300 with Closed Loop. When you use Polygon 1 or 2, the number of areas that can be specified decreases as the number of specified points increases in an area. You can designate up to 25 areas in the vertical direction when an image of an original is displayed on the touch panel display. For example, up to four areas are designated in the vertical direction in the illustration. You must not designate more than 25 areas in this pattern. If a large, closed-loop area is included, the number of areas that can be designated might be less than 300. Notes on designating an area If you overlay a new area on an existing one, the area specified later becomes valid. If you designate a lot of areas, the processing speed is lowered slightly. When you designate a triangle area, use the [Polygon 2] key. 1 Set the copier to scan an image of an original; set your original on the exposure glass (platen glass) and touch the [Scan] key. The scanned image is displayed on the touch panel display. 2 The relationship between the original direction and the displayed image direction is as shown in the illustration. Do not move the original after touching the [Scan] key so that the designated area can be copied in the correct position. You cannot set the original in the optional document feeder. Select one of the following four ways to designate an area: [Rectangle]/[Polygon 1]/[Polygon 2]/[Closed Loop] <Original direction> <Displayed image direction> 83

275 DESIGNATING AREAS When using the [Rectangle] key 1 Confirm that the [Rectangle] key is selected. 2 Designate the first point. Move the cursor to the designated point using the Cursor key or your finger and press the Point key. To change the designated point, touch the [Clear] key and designate another point. 0 R 3 Designate the second point diagonally. The designated points are connected as a rectangle. 84

276 DESIGNATING AREAS When using the [Polygon 1] or [Polygon 2] key 1 Touch the [Polygon 1] or [Polygon 2] key. 2 Designate the first point. Move the cursor to the designated point using the Cursor key or your finger and press the Point key. To change the designated point, touch the [Clear] key and designate another point. 0 R 3 Designate the subsequent points. Each time you designate a new point, a side is made. Important When using the [Polygon 1] key, designate points horizontally or vertically. You can designate up to 20 points in an area. 4 Move the cursor to the last point you have designated, and touch the [Close] key. The start and end points are connected and the area is set. 85

277 DESIGNATING AREAS When using a closed loop Important To edit an image effectively, the following conditions must be satisfied: The edge lines of the image must not have any break or light-density part. The edge lines must be of even width and 0.5 mm or more. The edge lines must be written in black. The edge lines must be written at intervals of 2 mm or more. When specifying the Paint or Highlight Color function, part around the edge lines might not be colored as you want or the width of the edge lines might become uneven. If you select the Photo mode when you specify Highlight Color in a mode other than the Full Color Copy mode, the Photo mode is switched to the Letter mode. You sometimes cannot specify a closed loop area properly if the area to be designated for Closed Loop is colored or crosshatched. If you specify Closed Loop on the trailing edge of an original and specify the Centering and Enlarge functions at the same time, the image might not be placed on copy paper properly. Touch the [Closed Loop] key. 1 2 Designate a point in the loop. Move the cursor to the designated point using the Cursor key or your finger and press the Point key. 0 R 86
