Original Type
Use this option to define the type of original being used for scanning. Making the correct selection
enhances the quality of your output image. The options are:
• Photo & Text is recommended for originals containing high quality photographs or line art and
text. Using this setting the scanned image will contain high quality pictures though the sharpness
of text and line art is slightly reduced.
• Photo is used specifically for originals containing photos or continuous tones without any text or
line art. Produces the best quality for photos but reduced quality text and line art.
• Text produces sharper edges and is recommended for text and line art. This option requires less
communication time.
• Halftone Photo is used if your original is from a magazine or newspaper that contains
photographs or text.
Resolution
The Resolution affects the appearance of the fax at the receiving fax terminal. A higher resolution
produces a better quality image. A lower resolution reduces communication time. The options are:
• Standard (200x100 dpi) is recommended for text originals. It requires less communication time
but does not produce the best image quality for graphics and photos.
• Fine (200 dpi) is recommended for line art and photos. This is the best choice in most cases.
• Superfine (600 dpi) is recommended for photos and halftones, or images that have gray tones. It
requires more communication time, but produces the best image quality.
Cover Letter
The Cover Letter feature attaches a cover letter to the document being transmitted. Using the cover
letter feature replaces the routine of manually sending a cover letter each time you send a document.

• To the recipients name, can be entered at the device.
• From the sender’s name, as entered at the device.

• Start Time the date and time of the fax transmission. Depending on the setup, the time is
displayed as a 12 or 24 hour clock. This information is added automatically to the cover letter.
• Pages the page count, excluding the cover page. This information is added automatically to the
cover letter.
• Fax number the number of the sending fax device. This information is added automatically to the
cover letter.
