When making copies with the ADF open and the original placed on the Original Glass, the machine detects the outline of the original and erases the area outside the original.

  • The scanning area on the Original Glass is the same as the paper size to be copied. Place the original within the scanning area.

  • The size of the original automatically detected is 3/8 inch 3/8 inch (10 mm 10 mm) or larger. If the size detection fails, a blank sheet of paper is output.

  • The top or end of the original image may be cut off.

You can select the erasing method from [Bevel] and [Rectangular]. For details, refer to Here.

  • [Bevel]: If the background color of the original is light, it is easy to identify the border between the original and outside area. Therefore, the machine erases the area outside the original (shadow caused by external light) for copying.

  • [Rectangular]: If the background color of the original is dark, it is difficult to identify the border between the original and outside area. Therefore, the machine does not erase the area outside the original (shadow caused by external light) for copying.
