The Océ TDS400 allows you to adjust the exposure setting according to the type of image on the original. There are three original types available:
■Lines/text
■Photo

By default ‘Lines/text’ is selected with the background compensation enabled. This is the best setting for originals with characters and line art.
■Select ‘Photo’ when the original consists of a combination of characters, line art and picture images.
Note: If you select ‘Photo’, the ‘Background compensation’ will be switched off automatically.
■Select ‘Blue print’ when you want to copy an original with an image in negative (image in white on dark background). The copy will be positive (image in black on white background).
