How to Enlarge Images on a Copier

Enlarging images on a photocopier allows you to create patterns for sewing or crafts or simply to create a large image from a smaller original. Many photocopiers come equipped with the capability to both enlarge and reduce images with the push of a button. Once enlarged, you have the option of creating multiple copies of the enlarged image. Although the menu on the photocopier may vary, the procedure is the same.
