# ADDING A REGISTERED IMAGE TO AN ORIGINAL(CUSTOM IMAGE)

## Overview

This function adds an image registered in the machine to an original to make a copy.
There are following two types of custom images.

- Custom stamp (Full-colour stamp image)
- Custom watermark (Stamp image with grey-scale watermark)

Custom Stamp
Custom Watermark

- An image must be registered in advance from the printer driver to the machine.
  For information about how to register an image, see "REGISTERING A CUSTOM IMAGE""REGISTERING A CUSTOM IMAGE" (User's Manual)".
- A custom stamp image is copied by sheet, not by original. If 2in1, 4in1 is enabled, user stamps are copied for each set of pages.
- A custom stamp image is copied with the registered size. The size remains unchanged even when the copy ratio is enlarged or reduced.
- A different custom image cannot be specified for each page.
- When you tap the [B/W Start] key, a monochrome copy is made even if you have selected a custom stamp.
- If an image runs off of the specified paper depending on the registered size or position, the excess will not be copied.

Custom Image can be combined with Tandem Copy.
Stamp copy is performed when a custom image with the same file name is registered in both the master and slave machines.
If it is not registered, a copy will be made without a custom image.
