Page 137 highlights

• Scan Mode Set the Scan Mode to match the kind of image you are scanning. There are three Scan Mode settings: Text/Line Art, B/W Photo, and Grayscale. • Text/Line Art Text/Line Art is best used for pages that are mostly text or tables. The page is scanned in monochrome, with each pixel becoming either black or white. • B/W Photo Photographic is for scanning photographic images. Use this setting for documents that contain graphics and photographic images. • Grayscale (64 shades) Grayscale scans the image in 64 shades of gray, giving a subtle gradation of tones. This mode gives the most shades, and therefore the highest picture quality. • Contrast Set the Contrast to Light, Medium, or Dark. The contrast function allows you to adjust the difference between light and dark areas of the scanned document. When set to Dark, there will be more difference between light and dark. Use this setting for very faint originals where the contrast is poor. Setting the Contrast to Light will result in a scan featuring less difference between these areas, ideal for dark originals. Medium is the default setting and should be used for images with good contrast. • Paper Size In this drop-down list box, select the paper size of the original document(s) you intend to scan. Paper Size can be set to Letter (8.5" x 11"), Legal (8.5" x 14"), A4 (210 mm x 297 mm), or Undefined height (8.5" x 39.4"). Note: If the Paper Size setting is different from the size of the original document, the unit will scan the original as if it were the size set in Paper Size. • Scan Click on this button to begin a scanning operation. • Close Click on this button to abort a scanning operation and return to Sharp Laser Multifunction Desktop. • Help Click on this button to bring up the help file dedicated to this dialog box.

SCANNING
2-5
• Scan Mode
Set the Scan Mode to match the kind of image you are scanning. There are three
Scan Mode settings: Text/Line Art, B/W Photo, and Grayscale.
• Text/Line Art
Text/Line Art is best used for pages that are mostly text or tables. The page is
scanned in monochrome, with each pixel becoming either black or white.
• B/W Photo
Photographic is for scanning photographic images. Use this setting for documents
that contain graphics and photographic images.
• Grayscale (64 shades)
Grayscale scans the image in 64 shades of gray, giving a subtle gradation of tones.
This mode gives the most shades, and therefore the highest picture quality.
• Contrast
Set the Contrast to Light, Medium, or Dark. The contrast function allows you to adjust
the difference between light and dark areas of the scanned document. When set to
Dark, there will be more difference between light and dark. Use this setting for very
faint originals where the contrast is poor. Setting the Contrast to Light will result in a
scan featuring less difference between these areas, ideal for dark originals. Medium is
the default setting and should be used for images with good contrast.
• Paper Size
In this drop-down list box, select the paper size of the original document(s) you intend
to scan. Paper Size can be set to Letter (8.5" x 11"), Legal (8.5" x 14"), A4 (210 mm
x 297 mm), or Undefined height (8.5" x 39.4").
Note:
If the Paper Size setting is different from the size of the original document, the
unit will scan the original as if it were the size set in Paper Size.
