B&W TEXT B&W PHOTO N r When copying in color: · Use COLOR FINE resolution for 360 x 360 dpi; this results in a much better quality reproduction, but takes longer than other settings. · Use COLOR DRAFT resolution for 180 x 360 dpi. · Use COLOR SNAPSHOT when scanning photos that are less wide than a letter-size page. r When copying in black and white: · Use B&W FINE resolution for copying most text documents. · Use B&W PHOTO resolution when copying documents that contain photographs. This scans areas of the document that contain photos with 256 levels of gray, and results in a much better reproduction of the photograph. r You cannot use the BC-22e Photo Color BJ Cartridge nor the BC-29F Neon BJ Cartridge for making copies. [. . . ] Resolution The measurement of a printer's quality expressed in dots per inch (dpi). Low resolution causes font characters and graphics to have a jagged appearance. Higher resolution means smoother curves and angles as well as a better match to traditional typeface designs. Resolution values are represented by horizontal data and vertical data, for example, 720 × 360 dpi. [. . . ]
