HOW TO USE THE FAX FUNCTION 4-3
There are several transmission settings that you can make before dialling and
transmitting a document.
Resolution
Your fax has four resolution settings:
• HALF TONE
Use HALF TONE for photographs and illustrations. The original will be reproduced in
256 shades of gray.
• STANDARD
Use STANDARD for ordinary documents. This setting gives you the fastest
transmission.
• FINE
Use FINE for improved reproduction, especially with documents containing small
letters or fine drawings.
• S. FINE
Use SUPER FINE when you need the highest quality of reproduction.
In order to transmit with FINE or SUPER FINE resolution, the receiving fax machine
must also have that resolution. If it doesn’t, the next best available setting will be used.
If you do not change the setting, the document will automatically be sent in
STANDARD mode.
Note: If the document is B4 size, you cannot use the HALF TONE setting in the
following situations:
•
With the Memory function*
• For a Broadcast operation
• For a Timer operation
• For sending from the original table
•
With the Memory Polling function
*
When the document is B4 size and the resolution is set to HALF TONE in memory
mode, the fax automatically switches to direct mode and transmits the document.
Contrast
The fax automatically controls the contrast, but you can also control it manually. To do
this, press the CONTRAST key one or more times until the desired contrast settings
appear in the display. The three contrast levels are light, medium, and dark.
