MAKING COPIES

EXPOSURE ADJUSTMENT

This copier has four exposure modes to choose from: AUTO, TEXT, TEXT/PHOTO, and PHOTO.

Auto

This is the standard initial setting for this copier. In this mode, the characteristics of an original being copied are "read" by the exposure system, and exposure adjustments are made automatically. This optimizes the contrast of the copied images by reducing the effect of colored or shaded background areas.

AUTO

100%

Text, text/photo, and photo

Text mode: This mode is useful for enhancing very low density areas of an original or suppressing unusually high-density background areas.

Text/photo mode: This mode provides the best balance for copying an original which contains both text and photos. This mode is also useful for copying printed photographs.

Photo mode: This mode is good for copying photographs with fine details.
