Changing the scan feature settings
This part explains how to adjust the document settings for each scan job, such as resolution, duplex, original size, type, color mode, darkness, and more. The options you change will be maintained for a certain time, but after that period, the options will be reset to default values.
Duplex
This feature especially applies when the original documents to be scanned are
Press Scan > Scan to Email (Or Scan to Server) > the Basic tab > Duplex. Use left/right arrows to toggle the values.
•1 Sided: For originals that are printed on one side only.
•2 Sided: For originals that are printed on both sides.
•2 Sided, Rotate Side 2: For originals that are printed on both sides. But the back is rotated 180 degrees.
Note
To use 2 Sided and 2 Sided, Rotate Side 2, you have to load the originals on the DADF. Because, if the machine can not detect the original on DADF, automatically changes the option to 1 Sided.
Resolution
You can adjust document resolution.
Press Scan > Scan to Email (Or Scan to Server) > the Basic tab > Resolution. Use left/right arrows to toggle the values. The higher value you select the clear result you get. But the scanning time may take longer.
Commonly, 100 dpi , 200 dpi and 300 dpi resolution are available only when Color Mode is set to Color or Gray. The following table shows detailed information feature, resolution and file format options.
