Stand-Alone Copying

Open the scanner lid.

Place your document face-down on the glass, in the corner shown below. Move your document about 0.1 inch from the top and side edge so your entire document is scanned.

Close the scanner lid.

The default copy settings are displayed on the control panel. Change any necessary copy settings, as described in Changing Copy Settings.

Press the Color Copy button (for color copies) or B&W Copy button (for black and white copies). Your document is scanned and then printed. If you're using the 2-up Copy Mode setting (see Type of Copies), repeat these steps for your second page.

Note: Your copied image size may not be the exact same size as your original.

Changing Copy Settings

The current copy settings are shown on the LCD screen. You can change copy settings using the control panel, as described below.

Note: To clear a setting, press the Reset button. To clear all the setting changes you've made, press and hold the Reset button for at least 3 seconds.

If you'll be changing the Copy mode setting (as described in Type of Copies), select your Copy mode before selecting any other copy settings.

Reduce or Enlarge

Press a Menu button until you see Reduce/Enlarge on the LCD screen. Then press the + or - Value buttons to enlarge or reduce your document to fit on the paper you loaded. Or select Auto Fit Page to have the EPSON Stylus CX3200 automatically determine the necessary reduction or enlargement.

To reduce or enlarge by a precise percentage, press a Menu button until you see Zoom In/Out on the LCD screen. Then press the + or - Value buttons to select a percentage of the scanned image for the resulting print.

Note: If you select Auto Fit Page as the Reduce/Enlarge setting to copy a document with white or very light colored edges, the original size may not be recognized correctly, creating an incorrect size copy. If this occurs, select 100% as the Reduce/Enlarge setting and use the Zoom In/Out setting to adjust the size of your copy.
