Setting the Scanning Resolution
Resolution is a measure of the fineness or clarity of a printout and is usually
expressed in horizontal and vertical dots per inch (dpi). Low resolutions may cause
text and graphics to have a jagged appearance, while higher resolutions provide
smoother curves and lines, crisp text and graphics, and a better match to
traditional typeface designs.
You can set the scanning resolution for the documents you send.
Setting the resolution for black & white sending
1. Make sure the Color/B&W light is turned off.
❑ If not, press the Color/B&W button to turn it off.
2. Press Resolution.
❑ The current resolution setting is displayed.
3. Press Resolution to select the resolution setting you want.
❑ You can select from the following:
(203 x 98 dpi) — Suitable for most text-only documents.
(203 x 196 dpi) — Suitable for documents with fine print
(smaller than the print in this sentence).
The higher the resolution, the higher the quality of output, but the slower the
scanning speed.
