ERASING PERIPHERAL SHADOWS ON THE IMAGE(ERASE)

Overview

The erase function is used to erase shadows around the edges of copies that are created when copying thick originals or books.

Erase modes

  • This function erases part of the image where shadows tend to form, but does not detect shadows and erase only the shadows.
  • The erase width is synchronized with the zoom ratio setting.
    For example, If the erase width setting is 1"(20 mm) and the image is reduced to 50%, the erase width will be 1/2" (10 mm).
To change the default erase width setting:
In "Setting mode (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Copy Function Settings] (Tab) → [Copy Function Settings] → [Erase Width Adjustment].
