Xerox 701P44148 manual Black and white scanning mode

9. Hints and tips

To obtain a quality print, your image resolution should be slightly higher than the printer's given LPI. To calculate this ideal resolution, multiply the LPI by about 1.5 to obtain the ideal pixel per inch (ppi) figure for your image. For example, given a 360 dpi photo-quality printer with a 150 lpi, you can get a photo-quality print if your image has 150 x 1.5 or 225 ppi. If you do not know your printer's lpi, the best way to find your optimal print resolution is to experiment. Print a test image at various resolutions to find out what your minimum ppi is for a photo-quality print. A good test image is a close up picture of a newspaper or a photo that has some angled straight edges in it.

Black and white scanning mode

In Black and White mode, scan Long Edge Feed (LEF) whenever possible. Scanning LEF allows the scanner image module to travel quickly across the document, allowing it to finish a scan quicker, and if scanning from the Document Feeder, to begin scanning the next document sooner. To scan a large stack of documents quickly using the Document Feeder, feed the stack LEF.

NOTE: When scanning in Grayscale or Color modes, feed your originals Short Edge Feed (SEF). This is significantly faster than Long Edge Feed for these modes.
