  • Page 407: Photo Mode

    IMAGE PROCESSING 20 June 2005 Photo Mode Photo mode emphasizes grayscale processing to achieve the best possible reproduction of photographs and eliminate moiré by using the highest density and coefficient in the reproduction of grayscales and dithering. Print Photo performs smoothing and dithering for photos copied from magazines, newspapers, etc.
  • Page 408: Pale (Low-Density Mode)

    20 June 2005 IMAGE PROCESSING Pale (Low-Density Mode) Pale achieves image quality comparable with Text mode, but of lower contrast. Pale employs an MTF filter stronger than that employed by the Text mode and uses a darker coefficient, thus increasing the incidence of copying textured backgrounds.
  • Page 409: Generation Copy Mode

    IMAGE PROCESSING 20 June 2005 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 coefficient to smooth the image, and 3) uses generation processing to thicken thin lines.

  • Page 447: Sensor Control Mode

    DEVELOPMENT 20 June 2005 Toner density control There are two modes for controlling and maintaining constant toner supply: sensor control (both direct and indirect) and image pixel count control. The mode can be changed with SP2-208-1 (Toner Supply Mode). NOTE: The factory setting is sensor control mode; image pixel count mode should only be used temporarily until a defective TD or ID sensor can be replaced.
  • Page 448: Image Pixel Count Mode

    20 June 2005 DEVELOPMENT Image Pixel Count Mode This mode should only be used only as a temporary measure while waiting for replacement parts, such as a TD sensor. This mode controls the toner supply amount using the same method for determining the toner bottle motor on time. However, the values that were in effect when the toner density control mode was changed over to image pixel count mode with SP2-208-1 (Toner Supply Mode) remain in effect and cannot be changed.
