Remove Background

This mode enables you to scan or make copies by erasing the background color of the original. This feature is especially useful for copying originals, such as catalogues and paper, that have turned yellow from age.


  1. Place your originals → press [Special Features] → [Image Qual. Adjustment].
  1. Press [Remove Background] → [OK].

If the background color remains, or if you want to make the background color darker when the original is scanned in the Remove Background mode, make fine adjustments to the density of the background color.

If you want to make fine adjustments to the density of the background color, press [Fine Adjustment] → press [-] or [+] to specify the amount of color that you want to remove → press [OK].

  • Pressing [-] or [+] adjusts the density. Press [-] to make the color lighter, or press [+] to make the color darker.
  • If you make fine adjustments to the density, the automatic copy exposure setting is canceled, and the original is scanned according to the Fine Adjustment settings.
