print size, and use the Reduce or Combine functions.
Note
❒ The maximum number of originals that can be placed in the ADF is about 30
(80 g/m2, 20 lb.).
❒ If you do not lift the exposure glass cover more than 30° when you place an-
other original, the machine might not detect the next original correctly.

Before Using the Machine

Non compatible originals for the Auto Document Feeder (ADF)


Placing the following types of originals in the ADF can cause paper misfeeds or
result in damage to the originals. Place these originals on the exposure glass in-
1 stead.
• Originals other than those specified on p.17 “Recommended Sizes and
Weights of Originals”
• Perforated or torn originals
• Curled, folded, or creased originals
• Pasted originals
• Originals with any kind of coating, such as thermal fax paper, art paper, alu-
minum foil, carbon paper, or conductive paper

*1 For details about how to print on A3L, see p.60 “A3 Paper Feed”.
Note
❒ Paper with a thickness of 47.1 - 209.3 g/m2, 12.5 - 55.7 lb. can be used. Plain
paper of 52.5 - 81.5 g/m2, 14 - 21.7 lb. is recommended. However, when using
a thickness less than 52.5 g/m2, 14 lb. or greater than 81.6 g/m2, 21.7 lb., it is
advised to select printing speed to setting 1.
❒ About 1,000 sheets of paper with a 64 g/m2, 17 lb. thickness is the standard
amount that can be set in the paper feed tray. This amount changes depend-
ing on the paper thickness. In general, set paper at a height less than 105 mm.
❒ When using paper that easily curls or waves in humidity, if there is high hu-
midity (more than 80%), set less than 500 sheets in the paper feed tray.
❒ Paper with a length of 90 - 297 mm, 3.5" - 11.7" and width of 140 - 420 mm, 5.5"
- 16.5" can be set in the paper feed tray. However, when using a paper size
that exceeds 275 mm length and 395 mm width, specify A3 Paper Feed. Spec-
ifying this function sets the printing speed to 80 cpm and the print position to
-10 mm, 0.4".
❒ Do not use curled or waved paper. Use paper with less than 5 mm, 0.2" curl
and 3 mm, 0.1" wave.
❒ When paper feed problems arise, try using a slower print speed.

19
Before Using the Machine

Non-recommended Paper
The following types of paper are not recommended for this machine:

1 • Roughly cut paper


• Paper of different thickness and types in the same stack
• Envelopes heavier than 85 g/m2, 22.6 lb.
• Folded, curled, creased, or damaged paper
• Damp paper
• Torn paper
• Slippery paper
• Rough paper
• Paper with any kind of coating (such as carbon)
• Short grain paper
• Thin paper that has low stiffness
• Paper that is prone to generate a lot of paper dust
• Grained paper loaded with the direction of the grain perpendicular to the
feed direction
• Certain types of long thin envelopes.
E.g. international mail envelopes

ZFXX040E

• The following types of envelopes

Note
❒ Do not use inkjet paper. It does not absorb ink well, print will smudge if
rubbed, and the back of paper may be dirtied.
❒ If you print on rough grained paper, the print image might be blurred.
20
Print Paper

Important
❒ Correct curls in the paper before placing it in the machine. When you cannot
correct the paper curl, stack the paper with the curl face down or face up as
shown in the illustration. If the paper is curled, it might wrap around the
drum or stains might appear. 1

Storing Paper
Note
❒ When storing paper, the following precautions should always be taken:
• Do not store paper where it will be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Avoid storing paper in humid (greater than 70%) areas.
• Store on a flat surface.
❒ Keep open reams of paper in the package and store as you would unopened

6. Remarks

Operation Notes

General Cautions
• While printing, do not turn off the main switch.
• While printing, do not open the door or covers.
• While printing, do not unplug the power cord.
• While printing, do not move the machine.
• Keep corrosive liquids, such as acid, off the machine.
• Open and close the door and covers softly.
• Do not put anything except originals on the machine.
• Do not spill liquid on the machine.
• When opening or closing the door or covers, keep hold of them so they don't fall.
• When removing the drum unit from the machine, be careful not to let the
drum unit fall.
• Do not modify or replace any parts other than the ones specified in this manual.
• Do not operate the machine without covers. You might get your fingers
caught in the machine, or the machine might be damaged because, for exam-
ple, dust or the like might get inside.
• Since some parts of the machine are sharp and might cause injury, touch only
the parts specified in this manual.
• If you clean rubber parts with water, wipe them with a dry cloth afterwards.
• Always turn the machine off when you have finished printing for the day.
• If the machine must be transported by vehicle, please contact your service
representative.
• Be sure to make a few trial prints to check the image position because the im-
age position of the trial print might not correspond with that of the original.
• If the image registration is not consistent, slow the printing speed down to
Setting 1.
• When performing duplex or multicolored printing, leave the printed paper
for a while before the next printing in order to let the ink dry on the printed
paper. If this is not done, feed roller marks will appear on the print image.
• If the machine is not used for a long period, the image density might decrease
because the ink on the drum might dry. Make extra prints until the image
density recovers.
• When the machine is used in low temperature conditions, the image density
might decrease. In this case, slow the printing speed down to step 1 or 2.

115
Remarks

• When making duplex prints, misdetection of paper wrapping might occur if


the paper delivery sensor detects a black area at the leading edge of the back
side. Keep at least 5 mm, 0.2" margin at the leading edge of the back side of
the printing paper.
• Press the {Proof} key to perform a test print as the first few prints might be
light.
• When making duplex prints or when using non-white printing paper, the pa-
per end sensor might malfunction and fail to detect the paper. In this case,
place a blank sheet under the printing paper on the paper feed tray.
• The outer portion of the image might not be printed under low temperature.
In this case, slow the printing speed down to step 1 or 2, or increase the room
temperature.
• The paper exit pawl might contact the printing paper and cause black lines on
the prints. In this case, increase the printing speed or make a new master with
lighter image density mode.
• If you cannot pull out the drum, close the front cover again to rotate the drum.
Pull out the drum after it stopped at the correct position.
• The leading edge of the prints might become stained if the edge touches the
image of prints on the paper delivery tray.
6 • The ink of the print on the paper delivery tray might stick to the back side of
the next print.
• When the machine is on and the power source is less than 90% of the specified
amount, printing quality will decrease. Therefore, make sure the supply from
your electrical outlet is at least 90% of the required amount.
• As various kinds and qualities of paper exist, some paper might be wrapped
around the drum or cause misfeeds.
• If your hands are stained with ink:
• Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.
• Cleanse skin thoroughly after contact, before breaks and meals, and at the
end of the work period.
• Ink is readily removed from skin by waterless hand cleaners followed by
washing with soap and water.
• Also, be careful not to get any ink on your clothing while emptying the master
eject box or while loading a new ink cartridge.
• The image density varies according to the printing speed and the room tem-
perature. So, adjust the printing speed or increase the room temperature.
• When you make a lot of prints from a small image, ink might ooze out from
the edges of the master, especially under high temperature and when print-
ing in two or more colors. In this case, make a new master.
• Use ink made within one year. Ink stored for a long period tends to dry slow-
ly and yield lower image density.
• While making a master, do not leave the exposure glass cover or optional
Auto Document Feeder open.
116
Operation Notes

• In Text/Photo mode, moire patterns might occur when screened originals are
printed. In this case, make prints in Text or Photo mode.
• When you use originals with light lettering, edges of the letters might be
printed clearly and the inside of the letters might be light. In this case, in-
crease the image density.
• When marks on the printing paper occur, clean the paper feed roller. See
p.120 “Maintaining the Machine”.
• If you make a second print before the ink from the first print dries, the ink
may adhere to the paper feed roller and soil the print. Before printing on the
reverse side of a printed sheet or overprinting on a printed sheet, be sure that
the ink on the first print is adequately dry.

Print Paper
• When the paper is curled, stack the paper with the curl face down, otherwise
the paper might wrap around the drum or stains might appear.
• Postcards and the like do not absorb ink well. Offset images might appear on
the rear side of subsequent prints. Solid image originals will cause offset im-
age prints.
6
Originals
• If there is no margin or if there is a solid image area near the leading edge of
the original, leave a margin of at least 5 mm, 0.2", at the leading edge; other-
wise, the paper might wrap around the drum or the paper exit pawl might be-
come dirty and cause black lines on prints.
• If you use originals that have bold letters or solid images at the leading edges,
you might get prints with dirty edges. In this case, insert the widest margin
first, or raise the printing speed.
• Under the following conditions, the machine might not detect the original on
the exposure glass. If you press the {Master Making} mode select key again, the
machine will start making a master anyway:
• When you set a dark original on the exposure glass.
• When the original is not centered according to the size marks on the right
scale.
• If you do not open the exposure glass cover at an angle of more than 30°
with the exposure glass when you replace originals.
• If the machine is installed under a strong light.

Printing job with use of the VC-20
Before sending a print job, ensure the correct size paper is loaded in the
machine. If the VC-20 does not find the size of paper that it is required to
print on from the printer driver, it will indicate a paper mismatch error if
[Size Mismatch Prompt] is enabled.
To print to the VC-20, select the print option from the file menu of the
application. In the print dialogue window, select the VC-20 driver installed
and set the quantity of prints required. In the properties section in the print
dialogue box, choose the size of paper the job is to be printed on. Once these
selections have been made, press [Print] or [OK] depending on the application.
The file is processed by the VC-20. If the [VC-20 GUIClient] application is
running, the [Job Tray] function will indicate a job is being sent. See [VC-20
GUIClient] function table. When the processing is complete, the Digital
Duplicator icon will change from green to orange and the master will be cut.
