Troubleshooting for Image Quality Problems By (2) Size Recognition, whether the original is recognized as full color or black-and-white depends on the continuity of the chromatic color in (1) Chromatic Color Recognition. The original is recognized to be full color only if chromatic color pixels are detected continually. If interspersed minute chromatic color pixels are detected (as shown below), the original is not recognized as a full color original.
Troubleshooting for Image Quality Problems Using SP4-939-001 (ACS:Color Range), you can adjust the level of (1) Chromatic Color Recognition for recognizing whether the original is full color or black-and-white. This is the SP for both copier and scanner settings, and you can adjust this setting with the 5-level scale from -2 to 2 (Default: 0).
Troubleshooting for Image Quality Problems The misrecognition occurs when scanning an original which has color only 15 mm from the edge (using the original as a standard) in the ACS mode. Cause In the ACS mode, the edge of the original is not recognized. Only the center part of the original document is the target area to recognize color or monochrome (in order to prevent misrecognition due to noise).

Troubleshooting for Image Quality Problems [A]: Sub scan direction: leading edge (left) [B]: Main scan direction (front) [C]: Sub scan direction: leading edge (right) [D]: Main scan direction (rear) [E]: Paper [F]: ACS area excluded from recognition • Because the edge of the original is subject to noise, color misrecognition may occur after setting these SPs smaller than the defaults.
Troubleshooting for Image Quality Problems 6.12.5 FAILURE TO REPRODUCE COLORED TEXT DURING COLOR COPYING Some colored text is printed in black. Condition This occurs when copying an original including faintly colored text or dark colored text in Full Color / Auto Color Selection / Two-Color mode.

This occurs when copying an original with an image visible from the other side (colored text printed on the paper with relatively thick-colored photos or graphs) in Full Color / Auto Color...
Page 714
Troubleshooting for Image Quality Problems Cause In the copier image processing, text areas and color areas are extracted from the scanned image of the original. This extraction is called “image area separation”. The area recognized as black text (text area and black and white area) is printed in black only.
