NOTE:
An SP code number and name set in
bold italic
denotes an SSP (Special
Service Program) mode. To access an SSP, enter the SP mode: press and
hold down
on the 10-key pad then “Copy SP” on the touch-screen.
These SP mode settings are provided to reduce the incidence of moiré in the
reproduction of images whose data signals have been compressed in the direction
of the main scan. However, these SP adjustments can cause different effects in the
reproduction of images depending on:
•
Whether they contain areas shaded with dot screening (newspaper,
magazine photos)
•
Their reduction ratios.
These adjustments can also cause blurring in the reproduction of images that
contain:
•
Low density dots
•
Low contrast text characters
•
Fine lines
While filter processing is provided to reduce the incidence of moiré generated from
digital signals, you must always pay attention to how these adjustments affect text
characters and fine lines.
