how do I scale copies?

When you select Auto for the Input Size and a specific Output Size, the Scale value will be set to Auto by the scanner software until the first preview after which the calculated Scale value percentage will be displayed.

to scale copies...
  1. After making your input setting, in the Copy tab press the Scale button.
  1. Press the Scale button to display the list of standard or customized scaling factors predefined in your system.
  1. Select the Scale value that fits your copy intentions. A Scale factor of 100% makes a 1:1 duplicate. Below 100% reduces the image in the copy and above 100% magnifies it.
  1. Press OK to return to the Copy Tab.

TIP: Make a fast miniature version of your big copy by setting the Scale factor to 25%.

You can set the system to bypass the Input, Output and Scale Setup dialogs and go straight to the predefined value lists. Select Setup tab > Options > Use quick select lists.
