[1] GENERAL
1. Features of copying functions
A. Touch panel
The touch panel with the back-lighted LCD simplifies various opera-
tions. It also shows operation descriptions and paper jam treatment.
B. Various functions of digital system
Different from the conventional analog copiers, this machine employs
the digital system where the image data of a document scanned by
the CCD sensor (which converts photo signals into electrical signals)
are converted into digital signals. This digital system allows the inde-
pendent zooming copy, black-white reversing copy, and centering
copy.
C. Front loading paper tray
The paper trays including the two-step paper feed desk employ a
front loading system to facilitate paper loading.
D. Automatic document feeder as standard
provision
Without opening the document table cover, documents can be auto-
matically fed and copied.
The automatic document feeder provided in the AR-280/285/286/287/
335/336/337/405/407/501/505/507 allows automatic reversion of
documents for duplex copying as well as simplex copying.
(The automatic document feeder of the AR-280/281 allows only sim-
plex copying.)
E. Step zooming
The zooming function allows selection of the magnification ratio as
follows. Magnification
ratio Increment Steps
AR-280/281 25% to 200% 1% 176
AR-250/285/286/287/335/336/337 25% to 800% 1% 776
AR-405/407/501/505/507 25% to 400% 1% 376
F. Paper/magnification ratio auto selection
When the desired magnification ratio is specified, the suitable paper
size is automatically selected by the original size detection function. If
the copy paper size is specified, then the suitable magnification ratio
is automatically selected.
G. 1-set 2-copy
The right and the left pages of a book, etc. can be copied onto two
sheets of paper continuously.

H. Edge erase copying
Shade at the copy edge can be automatically erased.
I. Binding margin copying
Copying with binding margin can be made.
J. Transparency film with insert sheets
When copying onto transparency film, insert sheets can be placed
following each transparent sheet. The insert sheets can be processed
blank or can be copied with the same image as the transparent
sheets.
K. Copy conditions registration/recall
Nine sets of complicated copying procedures can be stored and re-
called when necessary.
L. Key operator program
The key operator program is used by the key operator to set and
cancel the customer functions.
M. Auto duplex copy
(AR-250/280/281 requires the option)
Duplex copy is made automatically.
N. REPEAT COPY
The REPEAT COPY is used to produce repeated images from an
original on to a single sheet of paper. Border lines can be drawn to
separate repeated images.
O. MULTI SHOT
The MULTI SHOT function is used to copy several originals, collec-
tively in a specified order, onto one sheet.
P. Hi-Fi copy (AR-280/285/335 only)
This function produces high image quality copies.
Q. DATE SIGN
The DATE SIGN function adds the current date to the copies. The
date will be printed at the upper right of the copies.
R. WATERMARK
The WATERMARK function adds a selected watermark such as
“CONFIDENTIAL” and “URGENT” to the copies. The watermark will
be printed in gray tone at the center of copies.
S. SELECT STAMP
The SELECT STAMP function adds a selected string such as “CON-
FIDENTIAL” and “URGENT” to the copies. The string will be printed in
white on a shaded background.
T. PAGE NUMBER
The PAGE NUMBER function adds page numbers to the copies.

3. Installation requirements
To ensure safety and proper machine performance, please note the
following before initial installation and whenever the machine is to be
relocated.
1) The copier should be installed near an accessible power outlet for
easy connection.
2) Be sure to connect the power cord only to a power outlet that
meets the specified voltage and current requirements.
Also make certain the outlet is properly grounded.
3) Do not install the machine where it is:
·damp or humid,
·exposed to direct sunlight,
·extremely dusty,
·poorly ventilated,
·subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes (e.g., near
an air conditioner or heater).
4) Since a hard disk drive is built into this copier, place the copier on
a firm, level surface. Choose an area which is not subject to any
vibration.
5) Be sure to allow the required space around the machine for serv-
icing and proper ventilation.
A small amount of ozone is produced within the copier during opera-
tion. The emission level is insufficient to cause any health hazard.
NOTE: The present recommended long term exposure limit for
ozone is 0.1 ppm (0.2 mg/m3) calculated as an 8 hr. time-
weighted average concentration.
However, since the small amount that is emitted may have
an objectionable odor, it is advisable to place the copier in a
ventilated area.
Cautions
1) Do not touch the photoconductive drum. Scratches or smudges on
the drum will cause dirty copies.
2) The fusing unit is extremely hot. Exercise care in this area.
3) Since a hard disk drive is built into the copier, be sure to turn the
power switch to the "OFF" position when moving the copier. Take
care not to subject the copier to any vibration or shock.
4) Do not look directly at the light source. Doing so may damage
your eyes.
5) Installation adjusters are provided on the optional stand/500-sheet
paper drawer.When moving the machine with the optional
stand/500-sheet paper drawer, be sure to raise the installation
adjusters. After moving the machine, lower the installation adjust-
ers until they reach the floor to lock the machine in place. (If the
casters are not locked securely, the machine will gradually move
and the cables of the RADF and the SPF are rubbed against the
wall, causing internal disconnection.)
6) When copying is interrupted (for example, because the INTER-
RUPT function has been used, paper or toner has run out, a
misfeed has occurred, etc.), this copier will store the image data of
the originals read prior to the interruption. If copying of secret
documents is interrupted due to the above reasons, be sure to
either resume the interrupted copying by pressing the START key,
or clear the image data by pressing the clear all key after the
interrupt copying is completed or the trouble is cleared, because
the stored data may be printed by other operators.
