Adjusting the quality of your documents

Setting the scanning resolution

Resolution is a measure of the fineness or clarity of a printout. Low resolutions may cause text and graphics to have a jagged appearance, while higher resolutions provide smoother curves and lines, crisp text and graphics, and a better match to traditional typeface designs.

The higher the resolution, the higher the output quality, but the slower the scanning speed.

Load the document face down into the document feeder (see p. 13).

Press [Resolution] to select the resolution.

 

• You can select <STANDARD>, <FINE>, <PHOTO> or <SUPERFINE>.

 

• After about 5 seconds, the fax returns to standby mode.

 

• The documents are transmitted with the <FINE> resolution when <SUPERFINE> is selected. <SUPERFINE> is effective only

You can change the resolution setting while the document is being scanned for sending. However, please note that your new setting will only be effective from the next page scanned.
