Problem
When the scanner is powered up, the lamp does not light.
The scanned image is too dark.
The scanned lines of Black and White images seem much thicker than those of the original.
The color image quality is not acceptable.
Solution
•The lamp is dead. Contact your dealer to change the lamp. Lamp life is about 15,000 hours.
•If the power light on the ADF is flashing, the power adapter is malfunctioning or the main board has
•Modify the Curves setting to 2.2 and 1.8 for your printer and monitor, respectively.
•Use the Brightness setting to get a brighter image.
•Use the Brightness or Threshold setting to adjust Black and White images.
Color image quality is highly subjective. Here are some things to consider when scanning in color:
•The differing color gamuts of capture, display, and output devices can affect color perception. Computer monitor displays and printer output can vary from model to model and from manufacturer to manufacturer. An image may be acceptable on one monitor and unacceptable on another.
•Area lighting (fluorescent, natural, incandescent) can affect color perception.
•The appearance of a colored area within an image can be perceived differently, based on what surrounds it.
•The characteristics and condition of a document can have an impact on color consistency.
•Color requirements may differ between environments (e.g., in a business document environment, images are generally viewed on a monitor, whereas in a “print on demand” environment, scanned images are printed.)
•Make sure that the ADF and the glass areas are clean.
