BYPASS FEED (including special paper)
The single bypass can be used to feed standard paper, transparency film, labels, envelopes, and other special purpose paper. Paper measuring from A6 to A4 and in the weight range of 52g/m2 to 128g/m2 can be used in this tray. (For paper weighing from 104g/m2 to 128g/m2, A4 is the maximum size.) � The single bypass can hold one sheet of paper. � The original image must be smaller than the paper or media for copying. If the original image is bigger than the paper or media, this may cause smudges on the edges of the copies. � If you insert a sheet of paper into the single bypass when multiple copies have been set with the copy quantity setting (p.15), the copy quantity setting will change to "0" and only one copy will be made. � When copying onto transparency film, remove each copy promptly. Do not let copies stack up.

Select copy settings before you begin the copy job.
For information on the copy settings, see "MAKING COPIES" (p.11)".

Set the paper guides to the paper width. Insert a single sheet of copy (print face down) into the feed slot of the single bypass.
When you insert the paper, the unit will automatically draw in the paper and begin copying.

Note for loading envelopes
� Envelopes must be fed narrow side into the feed slot one at a time. � Do not use non-standard envelopes, and envelopes that have metal clasps, plastic snappers, string closures, windows, linings, self-adhesive, patches or synthetic materials. Do not use envelopes that are filled with air or envelopes that have labels or stamps attached. � Envelopes of which the surface is not flat because of embossing may cause the copies/prints to become smudged. � Under high humidity and temperature conditions the glue flaps on some envelopes may become sticky and be sealed closed when copied/printed. � Use only envelopes which are flat and crisply folded. Curled or poorly formed envelopes may be poorly copied/printed or may cause misfeeds.
