BEFORE USING THE NETWORK SCANNER FUNCTION

STORING SCANNING SETTINGS

Sets of scan settings (color mode, resolution, file type, etc.) can be stored for use in various scanning applications. Each set of settings is called a "Scan Mode". When storing a destination, you can select one of the stored scanned modes. The settings of the selected scan mode will be used when you scan an image and send it to that destination (p.8 to 11).

1 Click "Network Scanning" in the menu frame of the Web page.

3 Select the desired scanning settings.

Refer to the following table for information on each setting.

2 Click "Add" below the scan list.

If you need to change the settings in a previously stored scan mode, select the scan mode and click "Edit". To delete a scan mode, select the scan mode and click "Delete".

• For normal text originals, a sufficiently legible image is produced when the color mode is set to "Mono 2

Note gradation" and the resolution is 200 dpi or 300 dpi.

The 600 dpi setting should only be used in cases where high-clarity image reproduction is required, such as a photograph or an illustration. Note that a high resolution setting will result in a larger file size, and transmission may not be successful if there is insufficient disk capacity in the server to which the image is sent (or if the administrator of the server has restricted the file size). If transmission is not successful, you can try such measures as reducing the number of scanned pages in the file or reducing the scan size setting for the original.

•To open the scanned image without using the software program in the CD-ROM that accompanies the network expansion kit, the recipient must have a viewer program that can open the image format (file type) that was selected as explained above.

•The factory default setting for the image format produces the smallest file (File Type: TIFF, Compression Mode: MMR (G4)). If the recipient cannot open the image, try sending the image in a different format.

•If the number of scanned originals is not divisible by the number set in "Pages Per File", the last file will have less pages.

•The scan settings stored in a scan mode cannot be edited or deleted if the scan mode has been selected for a destination.
