SELECTING RESOLUTION AND EXPOSURE SETTINGS

After loading an original, you can adjust the resolution and exposure settings to match the condition of the original-for example, if it has small or faint characters, or if it is a photo. After loading the original in fax mode, adjust the settings as explained below.

SELECTING THE RESOLUTION

The initial resolution setting is STANDARD. To change the setting, follow these steps:

Change the resolution.

1 Touch the [RESOLUTION] key.

		If you touched the [FINE]
FINE
		key, [SUPER FINE] key,
SUPER FINE	HALF TONE	or [ULTRA		FINE] key,
		you	can	also	select
ULTRA FINE
		halftone by touching the

[HALF TONE] key.

Resolution settings

	Touch this key if your original consists
Standard	of normal-sized characters (like those
	in this manual).
	Touch this key if your original has small
Fine	characters or diagrams. The original
	will be scanned at twice the resolution
	of the [STANDARD] setting.
	Touch this key if your original has
Super fine	intricate pictures or diagrams. A
	higher-quality image will be produced
	than with the [FINE] setting.
	Touch this key if your original has
	intricate pictures or diagrams. This
Ultra fine	setting gives the best image quality.
	However, transmission will take longer
	than with the other settings.

3 Touch the [OK] key.

FINE HALF TONE

FINE

You will return to the initial screen.

	Touch this key if your original is a
	photograph or has gradations of colour
	(such as a colour original). This setting
Half tone	will produce a clearer image than
	[FINE], [SUPER FINE], or [ULTRA
	FINE] used alone. Half tone cannot be
	selected if [STANDARD] has been
	selected.

NOTES

The factory default setting for the initial resolution is [STANDARD]. The initial resolution can be changed to a different setting in the key operator programs (see "Initial resolution setting" on page 8-4).

When using the automatic document feeder, the resolution setting cannot be changed once scanning has begun.

When a fax is sent at [ULTRA FINE], [SUPER FINE], or [FINE] resolution, a lower resolution will be used if the receiving machine does not have that resolution.
