Adjusting The Contrast (Sharpness) - Canon MF7280 - ImageCLASS B/W Laser Copying Manual

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.

If you make copies of an original containing halftones, such as a printed photograph,
using the Photo mode, the moire effect (a shimmering, wavy pattern) may occur. In this
case, you can lessen this moire 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 for copying blueprints and faint
pencil drawn images.
