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 20,000 pages. However, this number may be fewer than 20,000 if other functions (such as registering a form) are in use, or other jobs are being processed.

If [Rotate+Collate] or [Rotate+Group] is selected, 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.
