ORIGINALS
ORIGINALS THAT CAN BE FAXED
Original sizes
* Long originals
Depending on the resolution setting and the width of the original, there may not be sufficient space in memory to
hold a long original. When a long original cannot be entirely scanned, select a lower resolution setting and/or
shorten the original.
Scanning area of original
When faxing an original, note that the edges of the
original cannot be scanned.
Width of edges that cannot be scanned:
5 mm from top and bottom edges, 6 mm (or less) from left
and right edges
Automatic reduction of faxed document
If the size (width) of the faxed document is greater than the receiving machine's paper size, the size will be
automatically reduced.
You can turn off automatic reduction. In this case, the left and right edges will not be transmitted. (See "AUTO
REDUCE TX" on page 105.)
