Setting the resolution and density

You can control the resolution and density of the fax reproduction when sending or copying documents.

What is resolution

Resolution defines the quality of the document reproduction. STANDARD is enough for most text

documents. Documents with very fine print should be set to FINE. Documents with photographs should

be set to PHOTO.

Setting the resolution

To set the resolution, you need to load the

document first (see p. 49).

STANDARD

Press [RESOLUTION] until STANDARD

appears.

Standard resolution is 3.85 lines/mm.

When copying, even if you set STANDARD,

the document will automatically be scanned in

FINE mode.

FINE

Press [RESOLUTION] until FINE appears.

Fine resolution is 7.7 lines/mm.

PHOTO

To scan documents that contain photos, use the PHOTO setting. With this setting, areas of the

document that contain photos are automatically scanned with 64 levels of grey, rather than just 2

levels, black and white. Photo resolution is 3.85 lines/mm. This results in a much better reproduction

of the photograph.

Density control

You can adjust the scanning density by changing the DENSITY CONTROL setting in the USER

SETTINGS (see p. 83). For light originals choose the DARKER setting. For dark originals choose the

LIGHTER setting.
