Yes, I know the newspaper clipping on the platen only covers a small portion of the copy area for 8.5 x 11 originals. That doesn&#8217;t mean I want it done at 250% magnification, or 50% for that matter.

If the machine had a &#8216;default&#8217; button, it would speed things up enormously and avoid wasting paper on copies that are entirely the wrong size or cut off portions of the original. I also know that the workbook I&#8217;m copying a page of is slightly larger than 8.5 x 11.
