Special Copying and Mail Box Features
Adjusting the Contrast
This mode enables you to scan and record, or make copies of the originals with a sharper or
softer contrast. To reproduce text or lines with a sharper contrast, use [High] as the setting. To
scan/copy originals containing printed photographs or other halftones with a softer contrast, use
[Low] as the setting.
NOTE
The procedure for storing documents in an inbox is the same as for copying.
■ Low
If you make copies, or scan an original containing halftones, such as a printed photograph, using the
Photo mode, the moiré effect (a shimmering, wavy pattern) may occur. However, you can lessen this
moiré effect by using [Low] as the setting to produce a clearer copy (image).
■ High
This setting enhances the edges of original images so that faint or fine text is reproduced with a sharper
contrast. This setting is particularly suited to scanning and copying blueprints and faint pencil drawn
images.
