Hi fjwolz19,
Thank you for using the Support Forum. Please contact a sales representative or a authorized dealer to ask about the book copying. There are copier/printers that have the book copying features of erasing the middle area of the open book. But if I understand your request you want the platen cover that rises to protect the book spine. I am not sure which machines may have that feature so please call a sales rep.
I'm not sure how long as the BookMark 40 and 55 were discontinued, but some of the staff I support have come across this device online and would really like to have it because of the book-friendly design that won't damage the spines. Has Xerox come out with updated devices that would also fit this requirement? It's a library where many books are scanned and copied and they want to protect them. Thanks in advance.
