Descriptions
Text/Photo, Photo Mode Filter  
SP mode settings listed in Columns 2~4 below adjust the clarity of originals that 
contain text, thin lines, and photos; the SP codes of Columns 5~6 are intended to 
adjust the clarity of originals with text and thin lines or only photos. The photo mode 
settings are only valid if SP 4904 001 is set to 1.

NOTE:  An SP code number and name set in bold italic denotes an SSP (Special 
Service Program) mode. To access an SSP, enter the SP mode: press and 
hold down  on the 10-key pad then “Copy SP” on the touch-screen. 
 
Filter Setting: Edge (Column 2): Provides filter processing of edges to improve 
the clarity of originals that contain text and lines. Selecting a larger value sharpens 
the clarity. However, increasing the value also increases the possibility of 
producing moiré in the image. 
Filter Setting: All (Column 3): Provides filter processing for the overall image, not 
to improve just text, lines, or photographs, but to improve the image as a whole. 
This filter coefficient reduces the incidence of moiré in images that contain shaded 
areas created with dots. Increasing the value improves reproduction of low contrast 
text and lines. However, increasing the value also increases the possibility of 
producing moiré in the image. 
Filter Strength: Edge (Column 4): Aims to increase the strength of the “Filter 
Setting: Edge” effect that processes edges to improve the clarity of originals that 
contain text and lines. Increasing this setting not only increases the strength of the 
effect and creates thicker text characters and lines, but can also cause moiré to 
appear in the image. On the other hand, decreasing this setting lessens the effect, 
creating thinner characters and lines and also reduces the incidence of moiré.  
Filter Adj.: Edge Detection (Column 5): Broadens the range of the effect of the 
“Filter Setting Edge” SP. Lowering this setting broadens the range for edge filter 
processing and increases clarity. Also, using this SP together with “Filter Adj. Mag.” 
below can sharpen edges to an extent that an abnormal looking image is created.
