Ensure that the total current of all the units connected to the wall outlet does not
exceed power supply capacity.
When using the extension cord, ensure that the total current of all the units connected
to this extension cord does not exceed the specification of the extension cord.
If it exceeds the specified current or power supply capacity, fire hazards may result.
Do not scratch, damage, or remodel the power cord.
Do not place heavy objects on the power cord, nor pull or bend it.
Or the power cord will damage and cause fire and electric hazards.
Disconnect the power plug from the outlet by pulling the plug instead of the power
cord.
Pulling the power cord will damage the power cord and cause fire and electric hazards.
If the power plug or cord becomes abnormally hot, first turn off the power switch and
disconnect the power plug from the outlet.
If used continuously in this state, fire and electrical hazards may result. Contact your
dealer.
Do not bind up the power cord even if it is too long, or this will cause poor heat emis-
sion and fire hazards as a result.
Do not touch the power plug with wet hands, or electric hazards may result.

• The number of sets to be collated is displayed.
• The number of bins to be used is displayed soon after the preset key is pressed.
• Do not forget to press this key before starting operation.
A set of sheets on the feed bins are fed and at the same time the bin to be used and the
paper size are stored.
7
• Press this key to commence and stop operation.
* The machine stops after discharging a set of sheets.
6
• Press this key to return the counter display to “0” .
* Keep pressing this key until “0” is displayed.
5
• In the straight stack mode, ejected paper is stacked at a fixed position of the paper
receiver tray.
• In the cluster stack mode, ejected paper is stacked by set on the receiver tray.

Control Panel
6. Using the DC-6 mini, DC-8 mini
Separate sheets of paper before
stacking in the feed bin.
• If sheets paper are not well separated, it may cause
misfeeding or double feeding.
• Make folded or curled paper smooth before use.
6-1. Precautions when Stacking the Papers.
Align the paper before stacking it on the
feed bin.
• Insert the paper to the feed inlet until it touches lightly
the guide face of the inlet.
• Misfeed or double-feed may occur if the paper is not
aligned.
Check whether the ink of the printed
materials is dry.
• Use after the ink on the paper is dryed well.
• Semi-dried ink not only fouls the machine, but also
causes misfeeding troubles by the ink stain.
Do not mix paper with different paper
quality, thickness, and printing in one
bin or the machine may detect it as
multiple feed by mistake.
6. Using the DC-6 mini, DC-8 mini
Direction at stacking the paper
Depending on the paper size, the stacking direction varies as follows.
6-2. Stacking the Paper
• Stack the paper lengthways as shown in the figure.
If the end of the paper is longer than the tray,
pull out the slide plate so that it does not hang
downwards.
Note:
Stacking Order of the Paper on the Bin
There are two ways of stacking paper on
the bin.
• Stack the paper sideways as shown in the figure.
• Put the first page on the top of bin and thereafter stack
the pages in numerical order.
• The paper is discharged to the paper receiver tray with
the printed surface down.
• Put the first page on the bottom bin and thereafter
stack the pages in numerical order.
Select the way more convenient to you.

6-3. Procedures
1 Insert the power cord into the outlet.
2 Turn the power switch on.
• Press the switch in the direction of “I” to turn the
power on.
• Press the switch in the direction of “O” to turn the
power off.
3 Adjust the reference guide to the
paper.
• Lift up the reference guide and insert it into the
grooves of the top and bottom stationary plates.
5 Press the movable guide lightly along
the paper side.
4 Stack the paper on the feed bin.
1 Stack the paper after lower the paper feed lever
downward.
Refer to “Precautions when Stacking Papers” on page
13 and “Stacking the paper” on page 14.
2 Put the paper along the reference guide as far as it will
go.
Be careful not to stack too much at one time
since the paper stack amount is limited to about
20mm in height.
6. Using the DC-6 mini, DC-8 mini
This switch operation cannot be performed
when the downstream processing device is not
connected.
6 Select “ON” or “OFF” with the
downstream processing switch key.
• Select “ON” when using a downstream processing
device.
• Select “OFF” when the downstream processing device
is not used.
This operation cannot be performed when the
downstream processing switch key is “ON”.
• Select the mode “Straight Stack” when not clustering
the paper.
7 Select cluster stack or straight stack
with the paper receiver select key.
• Select the mode “Cluster Stack” when clustering the
paper.

• The counter display returns to “0”, and display begins
again.
When the end paper does not come out from a
paper feeding shelf, put a white paper under
the paper. This is not trouble but phenomenon
due to static electricity occurred from
environment temperature and temperature
change.
