I recently purchased a Canon imageCLASS MF453dw multi-function printer and scanner. I've noticed that when scanning from the platen glass input source a several pixel wide white border is present in the scanned image, even though the object I'm scanning is all the way in the corner on the scanning bed. The attached scan of the user manual for the printer illustrates this. The white border can be seen at the top and left of the scanned image.
Can this border be disabled? Is my printer defective or is this how all of them scan? Thanks for everyone's help and input!

I'm using Windows 10 and I'm scanning from the MF Scan Utility software

Hello Gtg362i,
When scanning from the MF scan utility, you can adjust the size of the paper size so the document is the only item that is scanned.

No matter what custom size I use I still get a white border on the top and the left side of the scan.

I am also having this issue. There is a white border at the TOP and LEFT sides of the scan. This is NOT due to an incorrect page size. I have measured my page and input this dimensions, but this would only affect the BOTTOM and RIGHT side of the scan, as the page increases or decreases in height and width. This is NOT the problem. Please read carefully. The border appears to be about 3~4mm, both edges. In other words, it is not scanning those 3~4mm areas but representing them in PDFs and JPGs as white. As well, the other edges (bottom and right) are being cut off the scan those few milimetres are not being scanned. It is as though the software is offsetting the image to the bottom and right and displacing the top and left with white. How can we fine-tune the scan of the platen glass so as to NOT have that white border on the left and top edges?
