Adjusting Fax Quality

You can adjust the image quality (fax resolution) of the document you send. The higher the image quality, the better the output quality at the other end, but the slower the transmission speed. Adjust the image quality according to the type of document you are sending.

Adjusting Scan Contrast

Contrast is the degree of difference between light and dark. Increasing the contrast setting further blackens dark areas and whitens bright areas, whereas decreasing the contrast setting reduces the difference between bright and dark areas. You can adjust the contrast among three contrast levels.

  1. Press <FAX>, then press <FAX Quality>.

  2. On the FAX-Quality screen, press the up or down arrow to select [Scan contrast].

  3. Press the left or right arrow to select the appropriate scan contrast, then press <OK>.
