IMPORTANT
If you scan an original containing halftones, such as a printed photo, the moiré effect (a shimmering, wavy pattern) may occur. If this happens, you can lessen the moiré effect by using the Sharpness mode. (See "Adjusting the Contrast (Sharpness).")
NOTE
If the original is a transparency, select the original type → adjust the exposure to the most appropriate level for the original.
To adjust the text/photo processing priority level, it is necessary to install the Additional Memory Type B (512MB) to expand the memory capacity of the machine.
