Documents You Can Fax
For information on the types of documents you can fax, their requirements, and details on setting up documents,
→ Reference Guide.
Adjusting the Quality of Your Faxes
Canon’s Ultra High Quality (UHQ™) imaging technology enables you to send documents that have quality
similar to the original. The machine allows you 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 the Scanning Resolution
Resolution is a measure of the fineness or clarity of a printout. Low resolutions may cause text and graphics to
have a jagged appearance, while higher resolutions provide smoother curves and lines, crisp text and graphics,
and a better match to traditional typeface designs.
• The higher the resolution, the higher the output quality, but the longer the transmission time.
