[Highlight Pen], [Background Lines], and [Patched Original] can be used only if [Black & White] is selected.
If you select [Photo], Auto Image Density is automatically canceled.
When you select [Patched Original], thick lines, text, or solid images in the original are recognized as dark background that may not be copied.
