Generation Copy Mode
Generation Copy, based mainly on Text mode, aims to achieve the best
reproduction of copied originals (so called "generation copies" or copies of copies).
This mode 1) employs an MTF filter weaker than that of the Text mode to eliminate
spurious dots, 2) uses the γ coefficient to smooth the image, and 3) uses
generation processing to thicken thin lines. Soft employs an MTF filter weaker than
the Normal setting to achieve a softer image with less moiré. Sharp employs an
MTF filter stronger than that for Normal to emphasize lines for better image quality.
