1. Placing Originals
This chapter describes the types of originals you can set and how to place originals.
Originals
This section describes the types of originals that can be placed, the paper sizes that are selectable as
regular sizes, and missing image area.
• As the color of markers or highlighters is difficult to reproduce, the copy might not come out depending
on the color or a different color might be copied.
