Copying in Page Order or for Each Page Number

When copying two or more copies of multi-page originals, you can specify the page order as described below.

Sort

Copies in the order of the original.

Stack

Groups together copies of each page in a multi-page original.

Rotate Sort

Copies in the order of the original and outputs by rotating each copy set. Each copy set is output lengthwise and breadthwise alternately to identify each set.

To specify rotate sort, use two paper trays and set the same size and type of paper in the trays in different orientations, vertically (Portrait) and horizontally (Landscape). When the paper cannot be set in vertical (Portrait) orientation, you cannot specify Rotate Sort.
