All About Color This section explains the basics of the three primary colors, the three color attributes, and the technique of color printing. The Primary Colors Additive Primary Colors Subtractive Primary Colors Additive and Subtractive Primary Colors There are three additive primary colors and three subtractive primary colors. The additive primary colors consist of red, green, and blue, which are spectrum colors.
However, areas of images expressed in black are actually reproduced in brown by using this method. The Color imageRUNNER C3220/C2620 reproduces full color images in four colors, including black. The machine also enables you to adjust the balance of each color that is reproduced, or make copies of originals in one specific (monochrome)
"vivid" or "tranquil." Color Balance Adjustment The Color imageRUNNER C3220/C2620 enables you to adjust the color balance easily by using the keys on the touch panel display. Cyan, magenta, yellow, and black can be adjusted independently by using the Color Balance mode. In addition, the One Touch Color mode enables you to adjust the copy's image quality (e.g.,...
Surprising Effects The Color imageRUNNER C3220/C2620 uses complementary colors in the Nega/ Posi mode. When an image consisting of three additive primary colors is scanned into the machine, it automatically replaces these additive primary colors with their respective complementary colors before printing a four color image consisting of the subtractive primary colors (C, M, and Y) and black (K).
The Technique of Color Printing Color copying reproduces original images in tiny dots of C (cyan), M (magenta), Y (yellow), and K (black). Therefore, the colors of the original image are separated into these four colors during copying. The print data for each color is then developed onto the respective photoconductive drum and subsequently printed onto the transfer belt, with the various colors overlapping.
Preserving Color Copies I Fading Due to Exposure to Light As with all printed material and photographs, this is not a problem if the copies are stored under normal conditions. Color copies exposed for two years to the fluorescent lighting used in general offices will hardly fade, depending on the storage conditions.
IMPORTANT You can use the copy functions of the Color imageRUNNER C3220/C2620 only if the optional Color Image Reader-C1 and Platen Cover Type G are attached, or if the optional Color Image Reader-C1 and Feeder (DADF-K1) are attached.

IMPORTANT This machine is equipped with an open/close sensor on the feeder/platen cover (see circled area in the above illustration). When placing originals on the platen glass, lift the feeder/platen cover approximately 11 7/8" (300 mm) so that the sensor detaches from the feeder/platen cover. If the sensor does not detach from the feeder/platen cover, the size of the originals may not be detected correctly.
Page 47
Gently close the feeder/platen cover. CAUTION • Close the feeder/platen cover gently to avoid catching your hands, as this may result in personal injury. • Do not press down hard on the feeder/platen cover when using the platen glass to make copies of thick books. Doing so may damage the platen glass and result in personal injury.
Page 48
NOTE • Remove the original from the platen glass when scanning is complete. • The size of STMT and STMTR originals cannot be detected. After pressing (Start), follow the instructions on the screen to specify the original size. You can also manually select the paper size.
Feeder (DADF-K1) (Optional) You should use the feeder when you want to copy several originals at the same time. Place the originals into the feeder and press (Start). The machine automatically feeds the originals to the platen glass and scans them. Two-sided originals can also be automatically turned over and scanned as two-sided documents.
Page 50
Adjust the slide guides to fit the size of your originals. Neatly place your originals with the side to be copied face up into the original supply tray. Place your originals as far into the feeder as they will go, until the Original Set indicator is lit.
Page 51
IMPORTANT • Do not add or remove originals while they are being scanned. • When scanning is complete, remove the originals from the original output area to avoid paper jams. Original Output Area NOTE • When you are enlarging an LTR or STMT original onto 11" x 17" or LGL paper, place the original horizontally.

Entire Image If you are copying an original with an image that extends all the way to the edges onto the same size paper at a copy ratio of 100%, the periphery of the original image may be cut off slightly on the copy. However, if you set the Entire Image mode, the image is slightly reduced so that the entire image is copied without being cut off.
Reducing/Enlarging Using the Original and Copy Sizes The Zoom Program mode enables you to reduce or enlarge originals by individually entering the dimensions of the original and copy paper. Any copy ratio from 25% to 400% can be set. The following two Zoom Program modes are available. NOTE The specified sizes are converted into a copy ratio (%) by the machine using the formula below.
Setting the X and Y Axes Independently The XY Zoom mode enables you to make reduced or enlarged copies with different XY copy ratios expressed in percentages. Any copy ratio from 25% to 400% can be set. The following two XY Zoom modes are available: I Manually Specifying the Copy Ratio (XY Zoom) You can manually set different copy ratios for the horizontal (X) and vertical (Y) axes, expressed in percentages and in 1% increments.
Multi-Page Enlargement This mode enables you to enlarge an original to a size larger than 11" x 17" by copying parts of the original over several sheets of paper, and then pasting the sheets together. You can specify the copy ratio for Multi-Page Enlargement by percentage, or by setting the number of output pages that the original image should be copied over.
Determining the Copy Ratio and Number of Sheets Needed If you create a multi-page enlargement by specifying the copy ratio (as opposed to specifying the number of output sheets), the number of output pages changes according to the size of the original, the copy ratio setting, and the size of the copy paper.
Pasting the Sheets of the Divided Image Together Example: Enlarging an 11" x 17" original by 200% to create a 22" x 17" horizontal copy.

Original Copy Ratio: 200% Paper Size: LTRR The original is placed on the platen glass without changing its original orientation. The image of the original is automatically divided into 12 sections, each of which is then copied onto a separate sheet of paper.
Page 143
The images on neighboring sheets created by the Multi-Page Enlargement mode overlap slightly. When pasting the sheets together, trim the overlapping portions, leaving an adequate amount of overlap to apply the glue. The width of the overlapping portions differs, according to the copy ratio and paper size.
Collating Copies The Finisher modes can be selected to collate the copies in various ways, either by pages or copy sets. IMPORTANT • The Finisher modes cannot be set if envelopes, transparencies, tracing paper, labels, tab paper, or Washi (Japanese paper) is selected. •...
