The POWER SAVE indicator is blinking. → Indicates that the machine is warming up. Copies cannot be made until the machine has finished warming up. The machine does not operate. The front cover or the side cover is not completely closed. → Close the front cover or the side cover.

Press the [START] key ( ) to resume normal operation. ORIGINAL SIZE indicator is blinking. → If the ORIGINAL SIZE indicator blinks when margin shift is selected, rotate the original so that it is in the same orientation as the blinking ORIGINAL SIZE indicator.

Select the correct original type for the original. → Select AUTO with the [AUTO/TEXT/PHOTO] key or press the [Light] key ( ) and [Dark] key ( ) to manually select an appropriate exposure. → If the copy is too light or too dark even though AUTO was selected with the [AUTO/TEXT/PHOTO] key, adjust the automatic exposure level. Blank copies. The original is not placed face up in the SPF/RSPF or face down on the original table. → Place the original face up in the SPF/RSPF or face down on the original table. The original was not placed in the correct position. → Place the original correctly. The paper size used for the copy is different from the selected paper size. (part of the image is cut off or there is too much blank space.) An appropriate ratio was not used for the size of the original and the size of the paper. → Press the [AUTO IMAGE] key to have the copy made using the appropriate ratio for the original and paper. The size of paper loaded in the tray was changed without changing the tray's paper size setting. → Be sure to change the tray's paper size setting whenever you change the size of paper loaded in the tray. Wrinkles appear in the paper or the image disappears in places. The paper is outside of the specified size and weight range. → Use copy paper within the specified range. Paper damp. → Replace with dry copy paper. During periods when the machine is not used for a long time, remove the paper from the tray and store it in a dark place in a bag to prevent moisture absorption.
