IMPORTANT
A large print job may be automatically canceled by the machine. The maximum number of pages that can be printed at one time is approximately 6,000 pages. However, this number may be fewer than 6,000 if other functions (such as registering a form) are in use, or other jobs are being processed.

If you select [Rotate+Collate] or [Rotate+Group], part of the print image may be cut off when the image is rotated. You need to load the same size paper as the original in the paper drawers in both landscape and portrait positions. If you do not, all the sheets will be printed in the orientation that the loaded paper is in.

Under normal conditions, the print surface when C-Folding is the front, however, by selecting [Face Up] in 'Face Up/Down', you can C-Fold with the print surface on the back (inside). When performing two-sided printing, the paper is C-Folded with both the front and back sides printed.
You can adjust the width to fold paper with [Adjust C-Fold Position]. You should specify a value for this setting to adjust the folding width of C-folded paper to match the size needed to fit in an envelope, or to adjust the positioning of an image on C-folded paper to be visible through a window envelope. For details on this setting, see "Adjusting the Paper Folding Position."
