Configuring the Finishing Functions

You can configure the finishing functions described below.

Sorting Functions

The copied paper is sorted when output.

* When you use the platen glass, you need to configure the Job Build setting in order to copy multiple originals together and sort them when output. Copying Large Numbers of Originals (Job Build)

Types of sorting functions

Collate

When you make multiple copies of a multi-page original, the output copies are sorted into sets with the same page order as the original.

Group

When you make multiple copies of a multi-page original, the specified number of copies for each page of the original is grouped when output.

Offset

The output position is offset for each copy set or page group.

Rotate 90 Degrees

Each copy set or page group is output in alternating portrait and landscape orientation.

Staple Function

The copied paper is stapled when output.

* When using the staple function, pay careful attention to the orientation of the placed original and the staple position setting. Orientation of an Original to Be Stapled and Setting the Staple Position (Option)

Types of staple functions

Corner

The corner of each copy set or page group is stapled when output.

Double

Each copy set or page group is stapled in two locations at the edge of the paper when output.

Staple-Free

The corner of each copy set or page group is crimped without using staples when output.
This is convenient when you want to save staples or temporarily bind the paper, as you can easily peel the pages apart by pressing the crimped part with your finger.

Punch Function

Punch holes for filing are made in the copied paper when output.

* The available functions vary depending on the options installed. Options with Finishing Functions
