Scan Settings
You may want to send many different
types of fax messages. Some of these
may be difficult to reproduce at the
receiver's end. However, your ma-
chine has three settings that you can
adjust to help you transmit your doc-
ument with the best possible image
quality.
Resolution:
Standard, Detail, Super Fine (op-
tional)
Original Type:
Text, Text / Photo, Photo
Image Density (Contrast):
Auto Image Density, Manual Im-
age Density (seven levels), Com-
bined Auto and Manual Image
Density
Resolution
Images and text are scanned into the
machine by converting them to se-
quences of dots. The density of the
dots determines the quality of the im-
age and how long it takes to transmit.
Therefore, images scanned at high
resolution (Super Fine) have high
quality but transmission takes longer.
Conversely, low resolution (Stand-
ard) scanning results in lower quality
but your original is sent more quick-
ly. Select the setting that matches
your needs based upon this trade off
between speed and image clarity.
Standard (8 x 3.85 lines/mm, 200 x
100dpi)
Select for originals containing nor-
mal size characters.
Detail (8 x 7.7 lines/mm, 200 x 200dpi)
Select for originals containing
small characters or when you re-
quire greater clarity. This resolu-
tion is twice as fine as Standard.
Super Fine (optional expansion mem-
ory required: 16 x 15.4 lines/mm, 400
x 400dpi)
Select for originals with very fine
details or when you require the
best possible image clarity. This
resolution is eight times finer than
Standard.
Limitation
If the other party's machine does
not support the resolution at
which you are sending, this ma-
chine automatically switches to a
resolution that is supported. You
can check the resolution at which
you sent actually. See p.160 Print-
ing Journal, Facsimile Reference
<Advanced Features> .
Sending with Super Fine resolu-
tion requires that your machine
has the optional expansion memo-
ry, and the other party's machine
has the capability to receive fax
messages at Super Fine resolution.
Note
The machine supports Standard,
Detail, and (with the optional ex-
pansion memory) Super Fine reso-
lutions.
You can select the resolution type
that is selected right after the ma-
chine is turned on or modes are
cleared with [Scan End Reset] under
Gen. Settings/ Adjust. See p.143

tures> .
