XAdjusting Exposure (Density)

Exposure (density) is the degree of difference between light and dark. Increasing the exposure setting further blackens dark areas and whitens bright areas. Whereas decreasing the exposure setting reduces the difference between bright and dark areas. You can adjust the exposure between nine gradations.

Follow this procedure:

1Press [Menu] three times until <3.DENSITY> appears.

3.DENSITY

-LT DK+

2Use [W] or [X] to select the exposure.

Pressing [W] decreases the density, and pressing [X] increases the density.

3Press [Set].

NOTE

• To cancel, press [Stop/Reset].

XReducing Or Enlarging A Copy

You can reduce or enlarge copies using three different methods:

1Preset copy ratios You can select one of the preset ratios to reduce or enlarge copies.

2Custom copy ratios You can specify the copy ratio in percentage to reduce or enlarge copies.

3Automatic ratios The machine automatically reduces or enlarges the image to fit the paper size.

The following sections describe how to use these methods.

Using Preset Copy Ratios

Preset copy ratios are convenient when changing between standard paper sizes, for example, reducing A4 to letter size, or enlarging 4" 6" to letter size.

Follow this procedure:

1Press [Menu] once until <1.ENLARGE/REDUCE> appears.

1.ENLARGE/REDUCE

2Use [W] or [X] to select <PRESET RATIO>.
