Adjusting the Gradation and Density for Copy Jobs
Gradation refers to the dark to light continuum of shades of a color. The more shades in the gradations of colors that are printed, the more natural printouts seem. If color reproducibility becomes poor and the density and brightness of printouts differs markedly from the originals, perform the appropriate auto adjustment. This adjustment improves the results of copies and memory media print. For correcting copy images, an adjustment image will be printed and scanned. Note that you cannot perform this adjustment while performing some functions, including, scanning, and printing.
