Basic Operations
Placing Originals
Place your originals on the platen glass or into the feeder, depending on the size
and type of the original, and the copy modes that you want to use.
NOTE
If the original has too many pages to be placed in the feeder all at once, use the Job Build
mode on the Special Features screen. (See Chapter 4, "Special Copying and Mail Box
Features," in the Copying and Mail Box Guide or Chapter 4, "Special Scanning Features,"
in the Sending and Facsimile Guide.)
■ Platen Glass
Place the originals on the platen glass when copying bound originals (such as books and
magazines), heavy or lightweight originals, and transparencies.
■ Feeder
Place the originals into the feeder when you want to copy several originals at the same
time, and press (Start). The machine automatically feeds the originals to the platen
glass and scans them. If you are using the imageRUNNER 5075/5065/5055, you can
select to scan originals as two-sided documents with or without being turned over. If you
are using the imageRUNNER 5050, the feeder automatically turns over two-sided
originals to make one or two-sided copies.
Document Sizes
The size of the original is automatically detected, and the document is scanned.
When you are sending fax documents, if the output paper in the recipient's machine
is not equal to the scanned document size, the original image may be either
reduced in size or divided into smaller parts before it is sent.
The machine cannot always detect the size of the original if it is a nonstandard
paper size, such as a book. In this case, specify the size at which you want to scan
the original. (See Chapter 3, "Basic Scanning Features," in the Sending and
Facsimile Guide.)
