Copying Document Sets with Mixed-size Sheets

There may be instances where the document set you want to copy is made up of several document sizes. The Document Feeder on the Xerox Nuvera can be programmed to process document sets comprised of mixed-size originals.

For example, a user wants to compile different documents into one cohesive collection. The set has 8.5 x 11 inch and 11 x 17 inch originals. The user can load those originals into the Document Feeder with the 11 inch edge going into the Document Feeder first. With Mixed Size Originals (MSO) selected, the system will process the document set.

There are certain constraints when using this feature. See the sections below for details.

NOTE: The default setting for MSO is off. The MSO default is not settable.

If Mixed Size Originals has NOT been selected:

• Some jobs and features may not work without selecting the Mixed Size Originals feature.
• All output will be printed on the media the size of the largest original document.
• Images from the smaller originals will be placed in the upper left corner of the output paper.

NOTE: If MSO is enabled, and you load a set of same size documents, the job will still process with no errors or warnings.

When the Mixed Size Originals (MSO) feature IS selected:

• MSO and 1 to 2 Sides Imaged cannot be selected together.
• Reduce/Enlarge (R/E) must be set to 100%.
• Special Pages (Covers, Exception Programming, Inserts) can not be used.
• Signatures/Booklets can not be used.
• N-up can not be used.
