SPECIFYING THE ORIGINAL SCAN SIZE AND SEND 
SIZE (Enlarge/Reduce)
When the original is placed, its size is automatically detected and displayed in the base screen.
The size of the placed original is indicated as the scan size, and the size to be transmitted is indicated as the send size.
In the above screen, the scan size (the placed original) is A4 (8-1/2 x 11) and the send size is auto. For example, if the 
scan size is A4 (8-1/2 x 11) and the send size is B5 (5-1/2 x 8-1/2), the image will be reduced before transmission.
 Only standard original sizes can be automatically detected.
☞STANDARD SIZES (page 5-17)
 When the original size is a non-standard size, or if the size is not detected correctly, manually specify the original scan 
size.
