Image Processing Modes
The user can select one of the following modes with the User Tools screen: Text,
Text/Photo, Photo, Pale, Generation. Each of these modes has a range of different
settings (e.g. Soft, Normal, Sharp, etc). For each mode, a Custom Setting option is
also available. This Custom Setting holds the values selected with the SP modes,
which can be adjusted to meet special requirements that cannot be covered by the
standard settings.

In addition, there are two main image processing modes: grayscale processing and
binary picture processing. When no optional hard disk has been installed, the
machine uses binary picture processing. However, when the optional hard disk has
been installed, the machine uses grayscale processing. The user or technician
cannot select the mode.
