Adjusting the Scan Settings
To ensure that a received fax document is easy to read, set the image quality and
scan density to match the originals you are sending.
NOTE
•
You can store the most frequently used image quality and scan density settings as the
default settings. (See “Changing the Fax Default Settings,” on p. 6-4.)
•
Although originals sent in the FINE, PHOTO, SUPER FINE, or ULTRA FINE modes have
enhanced image clarity, transmission may take longer than if the originals are sent in the
Standard mode.
•
The default settings are:
- Image Quality: ‘STANDARD’
- Scan Density: ‘STANDARD’
