Copies made from photographs show
color or background on output edges
Most emulsions used to develop photographs have color.
Sometimes this color shows on the border of the photograph. To
prevent the color from being copied as part of the image or as
background, use the Edge Erase feature on the Added Features
tab to deliberately erase the unwanted color or background.
Copies made using the 100% Reduce/
Enlarge feature do not include the
entire image along the edge of the
document.
Select the Original Input feature and program the exact size of
the dark bordered document that you wish to copy.
Output is too light.
Use the Lighten/Darken feature to select a darker level. Select
the Text or Maps option in the Original Type feature.

Examine the input document for the source of the problem.
•
Ensure that the document is held flat on the Document Glass
and that the document cover is closed.
•
From the Image Quality tab, adjust the Lighten/Darken
control to Lighten.
•
When making Black copies, select Black Only as the Color
Mode. Reduce the Color Balance so the background does
not appear on the copies.
•
When copying colors, set the Color Mode to Auto and set the
Image Tone Preset Background Erase option so that the
background does not appear on the copies.
•
Determine the type of document you are copying. From the
Original Type feature, indicate whether the original is Photo
& Text, Text, Photo, or Maps for best image quality.
Note:
Use the Photo option for documents that contain areas
of different density, from light to dark, when all levels of density
need to be copied.
