How to Setup the Toolbox Copy Button Functions

Most of the Toolbox versions will have the same buttons and functions. However, some versions may have more functions than others.

Copy Button

This function scans an item and sends the image to the printer.
	To print the scanned image, the printer driver must be installed. You must also have the scanner and printer connected to the computer and ready to use.

With Windows, a portion of the window's contents may be different when used with some printer models.

Select Source

Click the down-arrow next to 'Select Source' to choose the appropriate scanning source.

For scanner models that do not support film scanning, there will only be one option for 'Select Source'.

• Platen

For film supported scanner models there will usually be three options.

• Platen
• Film
• Auto mode

Scan Mode

Click the down-arrow next to 'Scan Mode' to choose the appropriate scanning mode.

Platen Selected
For scanner models that do not support film scanning, the Scan Mode choices will be:

• Black & White
• Grayscale
• Color
• Color (Magazine)
• Color (Multi-Scan)
• Color (Auto crop)

Black and White	Scans an item as a black and white image.
Grayscale	Scans an item as a grayscale image (similar to a monochrome picture).
Color	Scans an item as a color image with the Descreen function set to Off.
Color (Magazine)	Scans an item as a color image with the Descreen function set to On.
Color (Multi-Scan)	Scans items in color. If more than one item is placed on the document glass of the scanner, each one is automatically cut out, straightened, and placed in an individual file.
Color (Auto crop)	Scans items in color. Automatically detects item positions and scans the smallest possible area into which all items will fit.

	*	Moir é patterns may appear in images scanned from printed materials. The Descreen function limits this to the greatest possible extent. However, scanning takes longer when Descreen is set to On.
	*	Multiple items will be printed when multiple items are scanned with the Color (Multi-Scan) mode.

If the Stitch-assist (11"x17"), Stitch-assist (A3) or Stitch-assist (Platen x2) option is selected, the program scans the left half and then the right half of the item, and merges halves into one image.

If the Custom option is selected, the Paper Size Settings window opens. Select a [Unit] option, input [Width] and [Height] values, and click the [OK] button.
