ABSTRACT:
A copy production machine operates either in a simplex mode (each copy has an image only on one side) or in a duplex mode (copies have images on both sides). In the duplex mode, an interim storage unit stores partially completed copies (only one side of the duplex copies have an image). A second copy run completes duplex copy production. During power on sequencing, circuits sense for an intermediate copy production state (also termed intermediate state or intermediate operating state) and automatically makes machine selections for a copy production mode in accordance with the sensed intermediate state. In one early embodiment the intermediate state was copies residing in the interim storage unit and the selected copy production mode was the production of side two in a duplex mode. An electronic nonvolatile memory may also store intermediate state indications for use during power on sequencing.
