Skyshot Mode

■■

■ Skyshot allows copying a manuscript without generating dark borders

■■

even if the platen cover or ADF/i-ADF is opened.

Skyshot mode eliminates dark borders around the originals, and is especially convenient for
copying small-sized originals like bank checks or documents with unusual shapes (round, oval,
etc.). These documents can be reproduced without generating any unnecessary black areas
simply by making a copy with the cover open.

Two types of Skyshot modes can be selected;
Digital Skyshot Mode : The scanning area (size) is not pre-determined.
Manual Skyshot Mode: The scanning area (size) is pre-registered into memory (M1 and M2) in

advance. (See page 30)
