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 printer is powered on.

2. Load paper (plain paper / photo paper).

3. Press the COPY  button.

   The Copy standby screen is displayed.

4. Press the Menu / Wireless connect  button.

   The Copy menu screen is displayed.

5. Select Special copy, then press the OK button.

6. Select Frame erase copy, then press the OK button.

7. Load original items on the platen (scanner glass).

    When you use this function, load the original on the platen.

8. Use the   buttons or the Numeric buttons to specify the number of copies.

   Change the print settings as necessary.

9. Press the Black button or the Color button.

   The printer starts copying.

 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 printer 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 printer cannot distinguish the document color from the shadow and this may cause slight cropping or a shadow on the crease.
