This machine makes effective use of memory in order to perform print operations
efficiently. For example, as soon as the machine has scanned the original that you
want to copy, it can immediately scan the next person's original. You can also print
from this machine, using a function other than the Copy function. In this machine,
these operations take place in a complex way, so that not only copies, but also
various kinds of prints may sometimes have to wait their turn before they can be
printed out.
To avoid confusion when reading this manual, the terms "scanning," "printing," and
"copying," used throughout this manual are defined below. When making a copy,
the process of scanning originals and printing copies may be described as separate
functions.
Operations and Terms Used in This Manual
Scanning
Scanning an original to be copied, or
scanning an original to be stored as
data in an inbox.
Printing
Outputting a copy, outputting data stored in an inbox,
or outputting data sent from a personal computer
to the machine.

xiv
Printing data scanned from an original,
followed by finishing options, such as
stapling.
