Setting a Scan Area

Normally, the area of a placed docu-
ment is scanned automatically. If a
scan area is specified, the document is
scanned accordingly. Thus, docu-
ments can be sent without extra space
or blank margins. Normally, all docu-
ments loaded in the optional Docu-
ment Feeder (ADF) are scanned as the
same sizes. To scan originals of differ-
ent sizes as different sizes, use Mixed
Original Sizes.
