In the case of self-copying on photocopiers made available for general public use, users of works no longer have the same entitlements that they would have if they had copied the work on a private photocopier, with a private scanner, a digital camera, etc. They do not profit any longer in concrete terms from the applicable special privileged status of the permitted complete copying. In this way, the limitations regarding the permitted scope also come into effect here, as in the case of private use for educational purposes and professional use (Art. 19 para. 3 CopA), whereby the copying of a complete work is not permitted.
