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.
Press the OK button on the Copy standby screen to display the print setting screen, and then select Frame erase.
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.
You can copy two-sided of a card sized original such as an ID card onto a single sheet of paper consecutively.
Press the OK button on the Copy standby screen to display the print setting screen, and then select ID copy.
Place the ID card with the front side facing the platen, with 0.08 in. (2 mm) or more space between the edges (diagonally striped area (A)) of the platen.
The printer starts scanning when you press the Color button or Black
button.
When the front side has been scanned, the confirmation screen appears.
Load the original on the platen following the on-screen instructions and press the OK button.
The printer starts copying.
Remove the original on the platen after copying is complete.
