Copying Thick Originals Such as Books

When copying thick originals such as books, you can make a copy without black margins around the image and gutter shadows. Using this function, you can reduce unnecessary ink consumption.

  1. Make sure that the machine is turned on.

  2. Load paper.

  3. Flick the HOME screen, then tap Advanced print.

    Using the Operation Panel

  4. Tap Frame erase copy.

    Note

    • When the Copy standby screen is displayed, tapping allows you to preview an image of the printout on the preview screen.

      Displaying the Preview Screen

  7. Press the Color button for color copying, or the Black button for black & white copying.

    The machine starts copying.

Note

  • Close the document cover.

  • There may be a narrow black margin that appears around the image. This function removes the dark margins only. If a scanned book is too thin or when the machine is used near a window or in a bright environment, a faint black frame may remain. Also, if the color of an original is dark, the machine cannot distinguish the document color from the shadow and this may cause slight cropping or a shadow on the crease.
