When you select to convert a scanned original to a single-page TIFF/JPEG

file, if gray scale is selected in [Scan Type] under [Scan Settings], depending on the [Compression (Gray Scale)] setting under [Scanner Features], the file type changes as follows:

[On]...JPEG[Off]...TIFF

When you set [Compression (Gray Scale)] to [On] under [Scanner Features], if you specify gray scale in [Scan Type] under [Scan Settings], you cannot select multi- page TIFF as the file type.

Files are stored in single-page format. When sending files by e-mail or Scan to Folder, you can select single-page or multi-page format.

JPEG format files cannot be sent as a multi-page TIFF file even if you specify to send it as a multi-page TIFF. The file is sent in a default format other than multi-page TIFF.

When you specify Gray Scale for Scan Type, and single page TIFF/JPEG or multi-page TIFF is selected as the file type, refer to the table below for how to place originals. Originals placed in orientations that are not recommended in the table might appear incorrectly top/bottom oriented on client computer displays.
