MAKING COPIES

SORT/GROUP

This copier has two sorter modes for different copying jobs: one sorts copies into sets
matching the sequence of the originals and the second groups copies by originals.
The sort/group feature cannot be used with the dual page copy feature.
To change the SORT/GROUP mode, press the SORT/GROUP key to select the desired
mode.

The capacity of the paper output tray is 250 sheets (150 sheets if an optional job separator
tray kit (AR-TR2) is installed). When the number of copies output reaches this limit in
a sort or a group copy run, copying will stop, the output tray full (

) indicator will light

and the START key indicator will blink.
Remove the copies from the paper output tray and press the START key to resume
copying.

Sort/group

Sort mode

Each set of copies will be sequentially delivered to the
paper output tray.

Group mode

All copies of the same originals will be grouped in the
paper output tray.

Offset stack

If the offset stack mode is enabled using user program
No. 19, each copy will be offset by approximately 1 inch
(25 mm). When copying in the sort mode, each collated
set of copies will be stacked offset from the previous
set. When copying in the group mode, copies will be
offset and stacked in groups of multiple copies from the
same original.
If the offset stack mode is disabled, copies will not be
offset.
The offset stack mode is enabled in the factory default
setting.
