Setting the Scanning Resolution
You can set the scanning resolution of documents you send. The higher the resolution
the higher the output quality at the other end, but the slower the transmission speed.
Adjust the scanning resolution according to the type of document you are sending.
If you are sending a document that requires some pages to be scanned at a different
resolution from the others, you can change the resolution setting while the document
is being scanned. However, please note that the new setting will only be effective
from the next page scanned.
