GENERAL SETTINGS Saddle stitch position adjust This setting is used to adjust the stapling position (folding position) when using the saddle stitch function of the optional saddle stitch finisher. The value can be adjusted in 0.1 mm increments within ±3.0 mm from the reference position for each paper size. Max.+3mm Position adjusted to the plus direction Min.-3mm Position adjusted to the minus direction 1 2 12 11 Reference position [AUTOMATIC SADDLE STITCH] checkmark The saddle stitch print function can normally be divided into the following three general steps. 1. The pages of the original are automatically reordered to allow saddle stitch binding (saddle stitch function). 2. The pages are folded at the centre. 3. The paper is stapled at the centre in two places (saddle stitch stapling). The [AUTOMATIC SADDLE STITCH] checkbox is selected by default. Selection of the checkbox assumes the use of the above saddle stitch printing function (three steps). Saddle stitch stapling exceptions Depending on the purpose of saddle stitch stapling, it may be necessary to perform saddle stitch stapling on printed matter that has already been bound by saddle stitching. In this case, it is necessary to disable step 1 above. If you frequently perform this type of exceptional saddle stitch stapling that requires disabling step 1, remove the checkmark from the [AUTOMATIC SADDLE STITCH] checkbox. High speed stacking This setting is used to give priority to print speed when printing in offset mode with the saddle stitch finisher installed. When priority is given to print speed, a slight decrease in stacking performance may occur. This setting is enabled by factory default. Rotated output When Rotated output is turned on, you can have the paper output orientation (A4-size paper only) of each set of copies alternate between horizontal and vertical. This function is used to sort output when neither the Finisher peripheral nor the Saddle stitch finisher peripheral are installed. * To use this function, A4-size paper must be loaded both horizontally and vertically in the paper trays. This function works when paper is output to the centre tray. The function does not work in the following cases: • When paper is output to the Finisher peripheral or the Saddle stitch finisher. • Printing in Group mode. • When a letter-size original is printed on A4-size paper using the "A4/letter size auto change" administrator setting (page 8-5 of the "Operation manual (for printer)"). • When "Transparency Inserts" or "Different Paper settings" is selected in the printer driver. • When the "Paper Source" drop down in the "Paper Selection" is set to any selection other than "Auto Select" in the printer driver. • When the printing paper size for a stored job or a job in progress has been overridden and changed to A4 size. NOTE When interrupt copying is performed, Rotated output does not take place to distinguish the output of regular copying from interrupt copying. Also, Rotated output cannot be used to sort output by job. Auto paper selection setting Use this setting to select the paper type* for which the automatic paper selection function operates. Selections are "PLAIN PAPER", "PLAIN AND RECYCLE PAPER", and "RECYCLE PAPER". * The paper type set for each paper tray in the paper tray settings of the system settings (page 2-5 of the "Operation manual (for general information and copier operation)"). Optimization of a hard disk This is used to optimize the "Main folder" and "Custom folder" that are used for the document filing function. When this setting is executed, a message will appear asking if it is okay to stop the job in progress. Touch the [YES] key to stop the job and begin optimization. When optimization ends, the machine will restart if the power switch is switched on, or turn off if the power switch is switched off. CAUTION If the power switch is switched off or the power plug is unplugged while optimization is in progress, the hard drive may be damaged and stored data or received data may be lost. 12
