Special Copying Features - Color and Image Quality Adjustments
Adjusting the Contrast (Sharpness)
This mode enables you to make copies of originals with a sharper or softer
contrast. To reproduce text or lines with a sharper contrast, use [High] as the
setting. To copy originals containing printed images or other halftones with a softer
contrast, use [Low] as the setting.
■ Low
If you make copies of an original containing halftones, such as a printed image, using the
Printed Image mode, the moiré effect (a shimmering, wavy pattern) may occur. However,
you can lessen this moiré effect by using [Low] as the setting to produce a clearer copy.
■ High
This setting enhances the edges of original images so that faint or fine text is reproduced
with a sharper contrast. This setting is particularly suited to copying blueprints and faint
pencil drawn images.
