enables users to print multiple images on a single sheet of paper, depending on the size of the paper.
Control-Panel Discussion
In general, the SCX-5312F’s control panel is very basic, as the number of copier features are fairly
limited, as might be expected in a low-volume copier. Copier features consist of: setting the number of
copies (from 1-999), adjusting contrast, adjusting zoom (from 25-400% in 1% increments), selecting an
image mode (text, mixed, photo, high quality) and duplex (on or off).
The unit’s control panel uses menus and cursor/hard enter keys as opposed to a more convenient touch
screen. However, most units in this segment typically do not have touch screens.
Because there are relatively few copier features (compared, for instance, to digital copier/printers
marketed by the digital copier companies), the control panel is easy to use, even for casual users.
