COPY FUNCTIONS

MAKING A COPY DARKER OR LIGHTER

The copy exposure can be adjusted as needed to the original. Three exposure modes are available: "AUTO",
"TEXT" and "PHOTO". When "TEXT" or "PHOTO" is selected, the exposure can be manually adjusted to 5 levels.
Auto
This is the default exposure mode. In this mode, the characteristics of an original being copied are "read" by the
exposure system and exposure adjustments are made automatically. The exposure level is lowered for coloured
areas and background shadows.
Text/photo
TEXT: This mode enhances low density areas of an original and suppresses high-density background areas to
make text more legible.
PHOTO: This mode provides clearer reproduction of halftones in photos.
