• The second scanner’s speed is half the first scanner’s speed.
• Speed increases when the scanner returns.
Reduction/enlargement modes
• First scanner speed equals the drum rotation speed divided by the magnification
ratio (0.5 to 2.0).
• Varying the scanner speed changes the sub-scan image size.
Image processing on the MPU changes the main scan image size.
• The return speed is the same as in full size mode.
