If you select PDF (Trace & Smooth), the machine may be unable to recognize which parts of the scanned document are text and line drawings, depending on the scanned document. The text and background of PDF files containing outline data may become misaligned, and text and line drawings may not be displayed, depending on the version of Adobe Illustrator used to open the PDF. When creating files by pagesTo scan a multiple-page original and save each page as a separate file instead of saving all pages as a single file, press <Divide into Pages>. To specify the number of pages to include in each file, after pressing <Divide into Pages>, specify the desired number of pages. To save each page as a separate file, specify <1> for the number of pages. If you select <TIFF/JPEG>, each page will automatically be created as a separate file according to the Select Color mode.

Selecting Color Scan/Black & White Scan
| | You can specify color when scanning documents. |
1
Press the setting button for color.
2
Select the color and press <OK>.
Depending on the file format you are selecting, the setting item that you can select is limited.
<Auto (Color/Gray)> Determines automatically what color is used for scanning according to the color of a document. For example, color pages are scanned in color, and monochrome pages are scanned in grayscale (monochrome gradation).
<Auto (Color/B&W)> Determines automatically what color is used for scanning according to the color of a document. For example, colored pages are scanned in color, and monochrome pages are scanned in black and white. Select this mode when text is faint with <Auto (Color/Gray)>, or when the document mainly consists of text.
<Full Color> Scans in color regardless of a document's color. Depending on the state of the color original, it may be detected as black and white when scanned, even if you set <Auto (Color/B&W)>. To avoid this, set the color mode to <Full Color>.
<Black & White> Scans in black and white regardless of a document's color. This mode is automatically set for the TIFF file format.
<Grayscale> Scans in grayscale regardless of a document's color. This mode uses different shades of color, such as black, dark gray, gray, light gray, and white, making color look more natural and beautiful compared with <Black & White>.
If a black-and-white original is scanned in the Full Color mode, it is counted as a color scan.
If you select <JPEG> as the file format, <Black & White> is changed to <Grayscale>.
If you select <TIFF> as the file format, <Black & White> is set.
If <OOXML> is selected as the file format, you can only send in <Auto (Color/Gray)>, <Full Color>, or <Grayscale>.
If you set the color mode to <Auto (Color/Gray)>, <Auto (Color/B&W)>, <Full Color>, or <Grayscale>, you cannot select <Long Original>. However, if only I-fax addresses are set as destinations, you can select <Long Original> regardless of the color mode.
If you set the color mode to <Auto (Color/Gray)>, <Auto (Color/B&W)>, <Full Color>, or <Grayscale>, you can only send documents at a copy (zoom) ratio of 100%. However, if only I-fax addresses are set as destinations, you can change the copy ratio regardless of the color mode.
