Scanning with Blank Page Removal on Canon ImageRUNNER DX Devices

The Canon ImageRUNNER DX Series photocopiers have a range of features designed to enhance productivity and reduce waste. One such feature is the Blank Page Removal function, which automatically detects and removes blank pages from scanned or copied documents. This functionality not only saves paper but also streamlines document management processes.

The Blank Page Removal feature detects pages with no meaningful content. When a document is scanned or copied, the photocopier analyses each page for text, images, or any other marks. If a page is completely blank or contains only negligible marks (such as smudges or very light text), the machine automatically omits it from the final output. This ensures that the final document is concise, clean, and free from unnecessary pages.

If you have a compatible device, you can follow these steps to scan with blank page removal:

  1. Place the original into the document feeder
  2. Press "Scan and Send".
  3. Specify the destination on the Scan Basic Features screen.
  4. Specify the scan settings as necessary.
  5. Press "Options" "Skip Blank Originals".
  6. Select the colour of the originals to skip
  7. Press "OK"
  8. Press "Start"
