Adjusting the Resolution and Contrast

3 Adjust the resolution and/or contrast settings (if desired) and then dial the receiving machine as explained in the following sections.

Adjusting the Resolution and Contrast

If desired, you can adjust the resolution and contrast before sending a document.

Resolution

The fax machine has four resolution settings:

STANDARD

Use STANDARD for ordinary documents. This

 

setting gives you the fastest and most

 

economical transmission.

FINE

Use FINE for documents containing small letters

 

or fine drawings.

SUPER FINE

Use SUPER FINE for documents containing

 

very small letters or very fine drawings.

HALF TONE

Use HALF TONE for photographs and

 

illustrations. The original will be reproduced in

 

64 shades of gray.

The default resolution setting is STANDARD. If you don’t adjust the resolution before sending a document, the fax machine will automatically use STANDARD resolution.

In order to transmit in FINE or SUPER FINE resolution, the receiving fax machine must also have that resolution. If it doesn’t, the next best available setting will be used.

The resolution settings are only effective for transmitting and copying a document. They are not effective for receiving a document.
