Canon C3200 manual Text/Photo Mode, Text Mode

Original Type Selection

You can manually select the original type according to the type of image that you are scanning. The following three original type modes are available for adjusting the image quality.

IMPORTANT

•Combinations of these three modes (Text/Photo, Photo, and Text) cannot be set at once. If you select one of these modes, the previously set mode is canceled.

•If you scan an original containing halftones, such as a printed photograph, the moiré effect (a shimmering, wavy pattern) may occur. If this happens, you can lesson this moiré effect by using the Sharpness mode. (See "Adjusting the Contrast (Sharpness)," on

p. 4-24.)

NOTE

If the original is a transparency, select the [Text/Photo], [Photo], or [Text] mode ➞ adjust the exposure to the most appropriate level for the original.

■Text/Photo Mode

This mode is best suited for scanning originals containing both text and photos, such as magazines or catalogs.

■Photo Mode

This mode is best suited for scanning photos printed on photographic paper, or photo originals containing halftones (e.g., printed photos).

■Text Mode

This mode is best suited for scanning text originals. Blueprints or penciled originals can also be scanned clearly. When [PDF (Compct)] is selected as the File Format, if the Text mode is selected, the Image Level in Text Mode settings made in Image level for PDF (Compct) in TX Settings under <Common Settings> in Communications Settings (from the Additional Functions screen) are automatically activated.
