Superimposing Images of Logos and Frames When Copying

You can register images such as logos and frames (decorative borders) as "form images" to the machine in advance, and superimpose these form images onto the original when copying.
This function is convenient when you want to add your company logo to meeting documents or unify the design of a business proposal by adding a frame.
