Basic Operations
Platen Glass
You should use the platen glass when copying bound originals (such as books and
magazines), heavy or lightweight originals, and transparencies. You should also
place originals onto the platen glass when you want to copy an 11" x 17" original
with an image that extends all the way to the edges without the periphery of the
original being cut off. (See Chapter 1, "Introduction to the Copying Functions," or
Chapter 3, "Basic Copying Features," in the Copying and Mail Box Guide, or
Chapter 3, "Basic Scanning Features," in the Sending and Facsimile Guide.)
NOTE
The machine automatically detects the size of the following originals: 11" x 17", LGL,
LTR, and STMTR.

Lift the feeder.
IMPORTANT
This machine is equipped with an open/close sensor on the feeder (see circled
area in the above illustration). When placing originals on the platen glass, lift the
feeder approximately 11 7/8" (300 mm) so that the sensor detaches from the
feeder. If the sensor does not detach from the feeder, the size of the originals may
not be detected correctly.
