Notes About and Limitations of File Types

Depending on the file format you select, the following limitations will apply:

Single Page [TIFF / JPEG]

Originals scanned in black and white are sent as TIFF files.
According to the settings specified for [Compression (Grey Scale / Full Colour)] under [Scanner Features], originals scanned in full color or gray scale are sent in one of the following file types:
- [On] : JPEG file
- [Off] : TIFF file

Multi-page [TIFF]

When full color, gray scale is specified under [Original Type] and [Compression (Grey Scale / Full Colour)] is set to [On] under [Scanner Features], you cannot select [TIFF] under [Multi-page].
Even if you select [TIFF] under [Multi-page], files stored in JPEG format are automatically changed to multi-page PDF files and then sent.
