Outside Erase
You can whiten a shadow-like dark part which has appeared
outside of the copied image; this has been caused by a gap
between the original glass and the platen sheet. This function
is called “outside erase”. It is useful when you place thick
originals such as booklets on the original glass.
• This function is disabled when you place originals on the
RADF or you place them on the original glass with the
RADF or the Original Cover closed fully.
• When this function is enabled, the automatic density
adjustment is disabled. Adjust the density level manually.
• Originals with an intricate outer shape (e.g. an original with
cut-out parts on its edge) may not be copied properly
because this function may not detect the border between
the original and areas not belonging to it.

Basic Guide
• When placing the original, be sure that the Original
Cover or the RADF is fully raised. If not, this function
may not properly be able to detect the border between
the original and areas not belonging to it.
• Do not directly look at the original glass during copying
since an intense light may leak.
Do not place any heavy objects (4 kg (9 lb.) or over) on the
original glass and do not press on it with force.
Breaking the glass could injure you.
