Adjusting the Quality of Your Faxes
Canon’s Ultra High Quality (UHQ
™
) imaging technology enables you to send documents that are very close
to the quality of the original. The machine allows you to send a document in colour or black & white, and to
adjust the resolution and contrast to best suit your particular document.
• Please note that you cannot change settings while your machine is scanning a document.
Setting Colour or Black & White Transmission
Your machine can send faxes in black & white. It can also send faxes in colour to fax machines with colour
capability. Before sending a document, you need to adjust whether the document will be sent in colour, or in
black & white only.
■
Colour/B&W Button and Light
Press
Colour/B&W
to switch between colour mode and black & white mode. When the machine is in
colour mode, the
Colour/B&W
light is turned on. When the machine is in black & white mode, the light is
turned off.
■
Notice for Colour Faxing
If you attempt to send a colour document to a fax machine that does not support colour faxing, the document
will not be sent and the LCD will display
TRY AGAIN IN B&W
. Try sending again in black & white.
Alternatively, you can enable the
COLOUR DIRECT TX
setting (
→
p. 9-6) that converts colour faxes to
black & white if the other party’s fax machine does not support colour faxing, thus enabling you to send
colour documents to any fax machine without an error occurring.
• When a transmission is over or cancelled, the setting automatically reverts to black & white.
