6-1. Precautions when Stacking the Papers.
7 Separate sheets of paper before
stacking in the feed bin.
• If sheets paper are not well separated, it may cause
misfeeding or double feeding.
• Make folded or curled paper smooth before use.
7 Align the paper before stacking it on the

feed bin.
• Insert the paper to the feed inlet until it touches lightly
the guide face of the inlet.
• Misfeed or double-feed may occur if the paper is not
aligned.
7 Check whether the ink of the printed ma-

terials is dry.
• Use after the ink on the paper is dryed well.
• Semi-dried ink not only fouls the machine, but also
causes misfeeding troubles by the ink stain.
7 Do not mix paper with different paper

quality, thickness, and printing in one
bin or the machine may detect it as
multiple feed by mistake.

6-2. Stacking the Paper

7 Direction at stacking the paper
Depending on the paper size, the stacking direction varies as follows.
When using paper between B5 and A3
• Stack the paper lengthways as shown in the figure.
Note: If the end of the paper is longer than the tray,

pull out the slide plate so that it does not hang
downwards.
Slide Plate
When using A5 size paper
• Stack the paper sideways as shown in the figure.
7 Stacking Order of the Paper on the Bin

There are two ways of stacking paper on
the bin.

6 Select “ON” or “OFF” with the

downstream processing switch key.
• Select “ON” when using a downstream processing
device.
• Select “OFF” when the downstream processing device

is not used.
This switch operation cannot be performed

when the downstream processing device is not
connected.
7 Select cluster stack or straight stack

with the paper receiver select key.
• Select the mode “Cluster Stack” when clustering the
paper.
This operation cannot be performed when the

downstream processing switch key is “ON”.
• Select the mode “Straight Stack” when not clustering

the paper.
The paper receiver tray moves automatically to

the appropriate position when it is not at the
proper position. The mode “Cluster Stack”
cannot be selected while the paper receiver
tray is moving.

• Sheets of paper consisting of a set are fed from the
bins and the number of bins and fed sheets is displayed
on the counter display window.
Refer to “Preset key” on page 20.
• The feed bin error lamp blinks when the paper is not
stacked in the bin or when the paper is not fed from the
bin.
Check the a set of sheets discharged on the

paper receiver tray.

• When a feed error occurs, correct it.
Refer to “On this Occasion” on page 27.
• After it is corrected, press the clear key to return the

counter display to “0” and press the preset key again.
Commence operation after checking the state

of the feed bins with the preset key.
12 Press the start/stop key to commence

operation.
• Press the start/stop key to stop operation when the
number of sets required is obtained.
* The machine stops after the paper is discharged
completely.
• The machine stops automatically when “999” is

displayed on the counter display.
• Press the start/stop key again to continue operation.
• The counter display returns to “0”, and display begins
again.
When the end paper does not come out from a

paper feeding shelf, put a white paper under
the paper. This is not trouble but phenomenon
due to static electricity occurred from
environment temperature and temperature
change.

6-4. Preset Key

The preset key detects which bin contains paper and which does not, and at the same time
records the paper size and reference data for multiple feed detection.
After this detection, it feeds paper only from the bins containing paper.
7 Operating the preset key

1 Press this key while the preset key
lamp is lit.
The lamp lights up when “0” is displayed on the
counter on the control panel.
The preset key can be used even when the counter is
not “0”. When pressed in such cases, the preset key
will not light up and the counter will start counting
from that point.
To return the counter to “0”, press the clear button.
2 A single set of sheets is fed from the

feed bins and the number of feed bins
are displayed on the counter display.
3 The feed bin error lamp flashes on and

off on the control panel, if there are
any bins from which the paper has not
been fed.
For example, if there are four bins from which sheets
of paper are fed and two bins from which sheets of
paper are not fed, the following display appears.
4 The number of bins from which sheets

of paper are fed and the number of
sets are displayed on the counter one
after the other.
• Sheets of paper consisting of a single set are fed and
Bins The Number of Sets
the number of sets is displayed “1 ”.
• The preset key lamp turns off and the start/stop key
lamp lights up.
20
5 When troubles like mis-feeding, and

paper jam occur, check the cause.
After checking press the clear key to
0”.
return the counter display to “0
Continue to press the clear key until “0” is displayed,
the preset key lamp is lit again.
6 Press the preset key again.

Check whether the paper is being fed properly.
Remember to press the preset key when the

bin to be used is changed or when the paper is
replaced.
7 Multiple feed detection function

When the preset key is pressed and paper is fed, the microprocessor will determine the
thickness of the paper while it is being fed to the paper receiving tray.
The multiple feed detection function takes the thickness of the paper first detected as the
reference data, compares it with paper fed thereafter, and determines it as multiple feed
when paper thickness differs.
Note
• When paper is multiple-fed during presetting, the multiple-fed paper will become the reference data, meaning that the
multiple feed detection function will not work properly.
When pressing the preset key, always check the number of sheets of paper fed.
• If the paper on the paper feed bin has been changed, press the preset key again.
Do not mix different papers on the paper feed

bin as the multiple feed detection function may
not work properly.
21
7 Turning Off the Multiple Feed Detection Function

When the multiple feed detection function is not required, it can be turned off as follows.
1 While pressing the clear key on the

control panel, turn ON the power
switch.

therefore be turned off each time it is not
required.
7 Multiple feed detection is performed at the following position

6-5. On Cluster Stack and Straight Stack Modes

7 Cluster Stack Mode
• The discharged sets are stacked individually by a set
on the paper receiver tray as shown in the figure.
• Remove the paper discharged last when the machine

stops because of running of paper during operation, or
because troubles like mis-feeding, over-feeding or
paper jam, etc.
* The first paper soon after restarting operation is
discharged to the same clustering position where the
last paper is discharged when trouble has occurred.
7 Straight Stack Mode

The discharged paper is stacked, without clustering, at a
fixed posision of the paper receiver tray.
