Copying different paper sizes

Use the ADF to copy original documents with different paper sizes. Depending on the paper sizes loaded and the “Copy to” and “Copy from” settings, each copy is either printed on mixed paper sizes (Example 1) or scaled to fit a single paper size (Example 2).

Example 1: Copying on mixed paper sizes
  1. Load an original document faceup, short edge first into the ADF or facedown on the scanner glass.

    Note: Do not load postcards, photos, small items, transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (such as magazine clippings) into the ADF. Place these items on the scanner glass.

    Copy > Copy from > Mixed Sizes > the check icon > Copy to > Auto Size Match > the check icon > Copy It

    The scanner identifies the different paper sizes as they are scanned. Copies are printed on mixed paper sizes corresponding to the paper sizes of the original document.

Example 2: Copying on a single paper size
  1. Load an original document faceup, short edge first into the ADF or facedown on the scanner glass.

    Note: Do not load postcards, photos, small items, transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (such as magazine clippings) into the ADF. Place these items on the scanner glass.

    Copy > Copy from > Mixed Sizes > the check icon > Copy to > Letter > the check icon > Copy It

    The scanner identifies the different paper sizes as they are scanned, and then scales the mixed paper sizes to fit on the paper size selected.

    The first number represents sides of the original documents; the second number represents sides of the copy. For example, select 1-sided to 2-sided if you have 1-sided original documents and you want 2-sided copies.

  5. Touch the check icon, and then Copy It.

Reducing or enlarging copies

Copies can be reduced to 25% of the original document size or enlarged to 400% of the original document size. The factory default setting for Scale is Auto. If you leave Scale set to Auto, the content of your original document will be scaled to fit the size of the paper onto which you are copying.

Creating a custom copy job (job build)

The custom copy job or job build is used to combine one or more sets of original documents into a single copy job. Each set may be scanned using different job parameters. When a copy job is submitted and Custom Job is enabled, the scanner scans the first set of original documents using the supplied parameters, and then it scans the next set with the same or different parameters.

The definition of a set depends on the scan source:

For example:

  1. Load an original document faceup, short edge first into the ADF or facedown on the scanner glass.

    Note: Do not load postcards, photos, small items, transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (such as magazine clippings) into the ADF. Place these items on the scanner glass.
  2. If you are loading a document into the ADF, then adjust the paper guides.

  3. From the home screen, navigate to:

    Copy > Options > Custom Job > On > Done > Copy It

    When the end of a set is reached, the scan screen appears.

  4. Load the next document faceup, short edge first into the ADF or facedown on the scanner glass, and then touch Scan the Automatic Document Feeder or Scan the flatbed.

    Note: If required, change the job settings.
  5. If you have another document to scan, then repeat the previous step. Otherwise, touch Finish the job.
