• Scan jobs received while the machine is copying or printing will be stored in memory. When the copy job is 

finished, the scan jobs will begin.

• Scanning is not possible when the front or side cover is opened for machine maintenance, or when a misfeed 

occurs or the machine runs out of paper or toner, or when the drum cartridge reaches its replacement time. 

• If an original misfeed occurs in the RSPF, scanning will not be possible until the misfed original is removed and 

the RSPF is restored to a usable state.
