Tip
• Use Text mode when text preservation is the main goal of the fax, and preserving images
copied from the original document is not a concern.
• Text mode is recommended for faxing receipts, carbon copy forms, and documents that
contain only text or fine line art.
•
Use Text/Photo mode when faxing an original document that contains a mixture of text and
graphics.
• Text/Photo mode is recommended for magazine articles, business graphics, and brochures.
Use Photo mode when faxing photos printed on a laser printer or taken from a magazine or
newspaper.
