Note

  • When you specify [Full Color: Text / Photo], [Full Color: Glossy Photo], [Gray Scale], or [Auto Color Select] in the [Original Type] tab under [Scan Settings], and single page TIFF/JPEG or multi-page TIFF is selected as the file type, see the tables below for how to place originals. Originals placed in orientations that are not recommended in the table might appear incorrectly top/bottom oriented on client computer displays.
