Inserting paper into the original

Inserting front and back covers ([Front Cover]/[Back Cover])

You can insert cover sheets, which may be different from those used for the body, before the first page and after the end page of the original.

The front and rear cover sheets can be a paper different from body pages (in paper color and thickness). You can print them at a time.

  1. In [Paper Tray] in the [Basic] tab, select the paper tray for printing the body pages.
    • You cannot select [Auto].
  2. In the [Cover Mode] tab, select the [Front Cover] or [Back Cover] check box.
    • If necessary, you can select whether to print the original on the inserted sheets or to leave them blank. When the inserted sheets are printed, the first page of the original is printed on the front cover and the last page of the original is printed on the back cover.
    • In [Front Cover Tray] or [Back Cover Tray], select the paper tray for the paper to be used as the front cover or the back cover.

Inserting front and back covers ([Front Cover from Post Inserter]/[Back Cover from Post Inserter])

You can insert the optional post inserter paper before the first page or after the last page of the original as the outer front cover.

  1. In [Paper Tray] in the [Basic] tab, select the paper tray for printing the body pages.
    • You cannot select [Auto].
  2. In the [Cover Mode] tab, select the [Front Cover from Post Inserter] or [Back Cover from Post Inserter] check box.
    • Select the PI trays for paper to be inserted as the front and back covers.
Tips
  • To use [Front Cover from Post Inserter]/[Back Cover from Post Inserter], the optional Post Inserter is required.

Inserting paper between transparencies ([Transparency Interleave])

When printing on multiple OHP transparencies, you can insert the specified paper between the OHP transparencies. These sheets of paper prevent the OHP transparencies from sticking together due to heat generated during printing or static electricity.

  1. In [Paper Type] in the [Basic] tab, select [Transparency].
    • If you select [Transparency], the [Print Type] is set to [1-Sided], and the [Select Color] is set to [Gray Scale].
  2. In the [Cover Mode] tab, select the [Transparency Interleave] check box.
    • In [Interleave Tray], select the paper tray for the paper to be inserted between OHP transparencies.
    • OHP interleaves are inserted as blank sheets.

You can select color paper and thick paper as paper to be inserted. You can also select whether to print the original on the inserted paper.

  1. In the [Cover Mode] tab, select the [Per Page Setting] check box, then click [Edit List...].
