size is usually larger than an equivalent JPEG.

Note: If Multi-page TIFF is turned off in the Settings

menu of the Embedded Web Server, then this option

saves one page in each file.

• JPEG—This creates and attaches a separate file for each

page of the original document, viewable on most Web

browsers and graphics programs.

• PDF—This creates a single file with multiple pages,

viewable on Adobe Reader.

• Secure PDF—This creates an encrypted PDF file that

protects the file contents from unauthorized access.

• XPS—This creates a single XPS file with multiple pages,

viewable on an Internet Explorer–hosted viewer and

the .NET Framework, or by downloading a third‑party

standalone viewer.
