There are six original types available:
Text

Photo
For photographs or pictures.
Text / Photo
For originals that contain both text and photographs or pictures.
Generation Copy
For originals that are copied. The copy image can be reproduced sharply and clearly.
Pale
For originals that have lighter lines written in pencil, or faintly copied slips.
Map
For map originals.
When you select [Text / Photo] or [Photo], you can specify the type of photo from the following:
Glossy Photo: Use when copying developed photographs
Printed Photo: Use when copying photographs or pictures that are printed on paper (e.g. magazines)
Copied Photo: Use when copying copies or originals generated by color copiers
Pressing [Original Types Guidance] on the [Others] screen displays explanations about the types of originals.
Select the original type.
If the shaded parts of your copies appear uneven, select [Text] or [Photo] for a smoother printout.
To select [Generation Copy], [Pale], or [Map], press [Others] first.
You can change the settings for original types shown on the initial screen under [General Features] in User Tools. For details, see General Features.
