Adjusting the Image Sharpness

You can adjust the sharpness to copy text and lines with a sharper contrast. You can also reduce the sharpness for the half-tone dots of printed photos, etc. to copy with a softer image.
Low
If you copy an original containing halftones, such as a printed image, the moiré effect (a shimmering, wavy pattern) may occur. Use [Low] to lessen this effect and produce a clearer copy.
