    3. The copy layout.

    4. Display the print setting items.

  6. Press the Black  button or the Color  button.

 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.

 To cancel copying, press the Stop  button.
