Variable Colour Balance
The Variable Colour Balance feature (Figure 38) 
allows you to adjust the balance between colours 
and the overall amount of colour on the output 
copies.
Variable Colour Balance provides you with the 
maximum range of colour control available. You 
can adjust the levels of all four process colours 
(Yellow, Magenta,
 Cyan, and Black) for areas of 
high, medium, and low density on the output 
copies. Three higher settings, three lower 
settings, and the normal (medium) settings are 
available for each density level of each colour. 
Each density level and each colour can be 
adjusted independently, and you can use any 
combination of adjustments.
Three different settings for Variable Colour 
Balance using Magenta are illustrated in Figure 
39, Figure 40, and Figure 41.
KEY POINT:It is important to remember that 
adjusting the amount of any of the process colours 
has an effect on the other colours.

The copier/printer may produce 
transparencies with or without blank

feature directs the copier/printer to insert the

mirror, or negative mirror images on your 
output copy from the document that was

Multiple-Up
The Multiple-Up feature (Figure 2) enables 
you to copy 2, 4, or 8 images from multiple 
originals onto a single page, as illustrated in 
Figure 3. Each image is centred in its space.
The default is set to 1 Page Up to produce a 
single image on a single page.
NOTE:Keep the following notes in mind 
when using Multiple-Up:
•All originals must be the same size. Paper 
size or magnification is determined by the 
first original that is scanned.
•Do not Interrupt the Multiple-Up job.
•The following features may not be used in 
conjunction with Multiple-Up:
– Margin Shift
– Repeat Image
– Bound Originals
•When you copy original documents from 
the Document Glass, you can only select 
a 25-100% reduction.
•Depending on the size of the original, 
some image loss might occur along the 
edge of the image.
•Enlarged images cannot exceed 17 
inches (432 mm) in the X direction.
•Do not use 12 x 18 inch or SRA3 paper.
The order and final rotation of images depend 
on the selections you make for the Image 
Order and Original Orientation options, which 
are described below.

Tables 1 and 2 will help you determine 
whether 2, 4 or 8 images can fit on a page 
without image loss due to differences in 
original document and output copy size. 
Images are centred in the image area.
When more originals are used than can fit on 
a single page, the extras are copied onto the 
next sheet with the same reduction or 
enlargement.
