5. Scanning-specific Adjustments
(4) When scanning the original, press the [COMMON SETTING] button on the Control Panel. Press the
[BACKGROUND ADJUSTMENT] button. Press the [ ] button to decrease the background density. Then
select "HIGH" from among the compression rate options.
* This adjustment will be effective, only if the original with a color background, such as a newspaper and
color paper, is scanned.
* This adjustment will have an effect only on the image scanned in the Full color mode (including the Auto
color mode) or the Gray scale mode.
After decreasing the background density and changing the compression rate, scan the original and check the
scanned-in image quality.
With the background density set to the minimum, if further image quality adjustments are still necessary, use
other procedures.
(5) Enter the setting mode [08]. Change the value for the code [8304] to change the JPEG compression ratio.
