Data Compression Ratio for Color Send Jobs

You can set the compression ratio for color scanned data. A high compression ratio

reduces the amount of memory used for the document, but results in low quality

images. On the contrary, a low compression ratio increases the amount of memory

used for the document, but results in high quality images.

NOTE
If [PDF (Compact)] or [PDF (Trace)] is selected as the file format, set [Data Compression
Ratio] to 'Normal' or 'Low Ratio' in TX Settings under <Common Settings> in
Communications Settings (from the Additional Functions screen). If [Data Compression
Ratio] is set to 'High Ratio', the images that are output may be of a low quality even if
'Image Priority' is selected in Image Level for PDF (Compct) in TX Settings under
<Common Settings> in Communications Settings (from the Additional Functions screen).
If the optional Super G3 FAX Board or Super G3 Multi-Line Fax Board is installed, and
you are sending documents by fax, this setting is disabled.
