Getting Started
Using the Ring Binder
Additional information
Be sure not to exit from Energy Saver mode or to switch the machine on when the ring
binder door is open and the binding unit is disconnected. Doing so will affect initializa-
tion, causing the ring binder function to become unavailable (although other functions
will be unaffected).
If you inadvertently do this, connect the ring binder's binding unit again, close the
door, and then turn the power off and back on to restore normal operation.

0302: When Double Feed is Detected
Error Correction
If you select [Suspended After Ppr. Dvr-
sion.], the machine, on detecting a dou-
ble feed, stops printing and delivers the
double fed sheets to the purge tray. After
the double fed sheets are delivered to the
purge tray, the machine displays a paper
misfeed message.
If you select [Auto Eject], the machine de-
livers the double fed sheets to the proof
tray.
If [Suspended After Ppr. Dvrsion.] is se-
lected, the machine stops printing if a
double feed is detected, then delivers the
sheets to the paper trap inside the ma-
chine at the bottom left, and displays a
paper misfeed message.
This setting is enabled only if 0301: [Dou-
ble Feed Detection] is set to [On].
