Metric specifications
The copy exposure can be adjusted manually. If you want to make
the exposure darker, press the right exposure adjustment key to
move the arrow under the copy exposure scale to the right. If you
want to make the exposure lighter, press the left exposure
adjustment key to move the arrow under the copy exposure scale to
the left.
If you want the copy exposure to be adjusted automatically, press
the “Auto Exposure” key. When making black and white copies in
the auto exposure mode, the contrast of the original will be
detected and the most suitable exposure level selected
automatically. When making full color copies in this mode, the
copier will automatically perform the corresponding background
exposure adjustment.
The copy exposure can also be adjusted by pressing the “Exposure
mode” key to access the “Exposure mode” screen and performing
the same exposure adjustment procedure there.
