Ftp Tips - Lexmark X644e User Manual

Content: Tells the MFP the original document type. Choose from Text, Text/Photo, or Photo. Color
can be turned on or off with any of the Content choices. Content affects the quality and size of your
FTP file.
Text: Emphasizes sharp, black, high-resolution text against a clean, white background.
Text/Photo: Used when the original documents are a mixture of text and graphics or pictures.
Photo: Tells the scanner to pay extra attention to graphics and pictures. This setting takes
longer to scan but emphasizes a reproduction of the full dynamic range of tones in the
original document. This increases the amount of information saved.
Color: Sets the scan type and output for the copy. Color documents can be scanned and sent
to an FTP site, PC, or e-mail address. The MFP will print color documents in grayscale only.
Advanced Options: Accesses the Transmission Log, Edge Erase, or Darkness settings.
Transmission Log: Prints the transmission log or transmission error log.
Edge Erase: Eliminates smudges or information around the edges of your document. You
can choose to eliminate an equal area around all four sides, or pick a particular edge. Edge
Erase will erase whatever is within the area selected and leave nothing printed on that portion
of the paper.
Darkness: Adjusts how light or dark your scanned documents will turn out.

When should I use
Text/Photo mode?
When should I use Photo
mode?
Tip
• Text mode should be used when text preservation is the main goal of
sending a document to an FTP site, and preserving images copied from
the original document is not a concern.
• Text is best used for receipts, carbon copy forms, and documents that only
contain text or fine line art.
• Text/Photo mode should be used when sending a document to an FTP site
that contains a mixture of text and graphics.
• Text/Photo is best used for magazine articles, business graphics, and
brochures.
Photo mode should be used when the original is composed mostly of
photos printed on a laser printer or taken from a magazine or
newspaper.
