Erasing Shadows / Frame Lines (Frame Erase)

The Frame Erase modes erase shadows and lines that appear when copying various types of originals. This section describes the three Frame Erase modes available.

NOTE
You can select the following original sizes: A4, A4R, A3, A5, A5R, B4, B5, or B5R.

Original Frame Erase

The Original Frame Erase mode erases the dark borders and frame lines that appear around the copy if the original is smaller than the selected paper size. You can also use this mode to create a blank border around the edge of the copy.

IMPORTANT
The Original Frame Erase mode cannot be used with the Image Combination, ID Card Copy, or Different Size Originals modes.

Book Frame Erase

The Book Frame Erase mode erases the dark borders such as center and contour lines that appear when you copy facing pages in a bound original onto a single sheet of paper.
