<p>A xerographic reproducing machine including a manually operable start switch (20), a circuit responsive to actuation of the start switch for cycling from a standby condition to an operating condition for performing a process for copying a document, the copying process including machine preparation to a copy ready state and subsequent initiation of the sequential copying steps, a timing circuit (22) for initiating the copying steps after achieving the copy ready state, and a standby circuit (26) for cycling the machine to the standby condition after a predetermined time absent re-actuation of the start switch (20), the improvement comprising a delay control circuit (30) connected to said timing circuit (22) for delaying initiation of the copying steps after achieving the copy ready state, activating means (32) for selectively activating the delay control circuit (30), and a circuit responsive to activation of the delay control (30) for bypassing the standby circuit (26). <IMAGE></p> |
