4. Copying
Controlling how your copies will look
When you make a copy from the Document Assistant, the way it
looks is determined by the settings in the Copy dialog box. These set-
tings will not affect copies made from the keypad.
Optimizing the quality
The HP OfficeJet software is factory-set to optimize the words in
your copies. When your original is a photograph or graphic, click the
Original is photo or graphic
checkbox for best quality.
Darkening and lightening
(Contrast setting)
When you want the copy to be darker or lighter than your original
document, drag the slider bar in the Contrast area to the Contrast set-
ting you want.
Reducing and enlarging
When you want the copy to be smaller or larger than your original
document, change the Reduce/Enlarge setting.
Note: When

is selected in the Copy
dialog box, you won’t be able to enlarge your document.
