Special Scanning Features

Adjusting the Contrast (Sharpness)

This mode enables you to scan original images with a sharper or softer contrast. To scan text or lines sharply, use the [High] setting. To scan originals containing printed photographs or other halftones, use the [Low] setting.

Low

If you want to scan an original containing halftones, such as a printed photograph, using the Photo mode, the moiré effect (a shimmering, wavy pattern) may occur. However, you can lessen the moiré effect by using the [Low] setting to produce a clearer image.

High

This setting enhances the edges of original images so that faint or fine text is scanned with a sharper contrast. This setting is particularly suited for scanning blueprints and faint pencil drawn images.

1 Place your originals specify the destination.

For more information on specifying the destination, see Chapter 2, "Basic

Sending Methods."

2 Press the Scan Settings drop-down list press [Option].
