Setting the Scanning Resolution
Resolution is a measure of the fineness or clarity of a printout. 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.
• The higher the resolution, the higher the output quality, but the slower the scanning and transmission speed.
