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.
