2.3.7 Automatically conserving energy (Sleep mode)
If no operation is performed for a specified length of time, the machine automatically enters a mode where it
conserves energy.
Although the machine conserves more energy in Sleep mode than in Low Power mode, the machine must
warm up when Sleep mode is canceled to begin printing again, therefore taking more preparation time than
Low Power mode.
As the factory default, the machine enters Sleep mode after 20 minute.
To recover from Sleep mode
% Press the [Power Save] key.
– The touch panel comes on again and, after the machine
has finished warming up, it is ready to begin printing.
2
Note

otherwise an original misfeed or damage to the original or machine may occur. However, a original that
exceeds 100 pages can be scanned in separate batches. For details, refer to "Scanning the original in
separate batches ("Separate Scan" setting)" on page 3-11.
0 If the original is not loaded correctly, it may not be fed in straight or an original misfeed or damage to
the original may occur.
0 If the original is loaded in any orientation other than with the top of the original toward the back of the
machine, be sure to select the original orientation. For details on selecting the original orientation, refer
to "Selecting the original orientation (Original Direction settings)" on page 3-25.

3.5 Selecting a Color setting
Select a color setting for making copies.

Note
As the factory default, "Auto Color" is selected.
Color setting Description

Auto Color Select this setting to automatically detect whether the scanned original is in color or in
black and white, and then select the appropriate Color setting ("Full Color" or "Black").
Full Color Select this setting to print the copy in full color, regardless of whether the scanned original
is in color or in black and white.
2 Color Select this setting to print all areas of the scanned original determined to be in color with
the specified color, and print all areas determined to be black in black. (The colors used
for the areas printed in color are: red, yellow, blue, magenta, green or cyan. Refer to
page 8-18.)
Black Select this setting to print the copy in black and white, regardless of whether the scanned
original is in color or in black and white.
Single Color Select this setting to print copies in the specified color, regardless of whether the scanned
original is in color or in blank and white. (The color used for printing the copy can be set to
one of the 21 available. Refer to page 8-17.)
When the "Single Color" setting is selected, the following two methods for reproducing
gradations in originals are available.
Relative luminosity: The original will be copied using concentration variations of a single
color to express color differences (color shading that can be seen with the eye) and gra-
dation levels. This enables the color of markers, the blue lines in graphing paper and the
red of stamps to be distinctly reproduced in copies.
Average brightness: The original will be copied using concentration variations of a single
color to only express gradation levels, regardless of the color differences in the original.
This is useful for producing monocolor copies of originals containing gradation differences,
such as magazines and newspapers, and for offsetting the yellow tint in originals that have
yellowed.

blue, etc.
Brightness is the degree of lightness in a color, as compared

with another color, which makes it a light color or a dark color.
For example, when comparing the yellow of a lemon and the
yellow of a grapefruit, it is obvious that the yellow of the lemon
is brighter. But what about when comparing the yellow of a
lemon and the red of a bean? Obviously, the yellow of the lemon
is brighter. Brightness is this degree of lightness that enables
comparison regardless of the hue.
What makes the difference between the yellow of a lemon and

the yellow of a pear? By saying that the lemon is a more vivid
yellow and the pear is a duller yellow, the difference between
the two colors is stated in terms of saturation, as opposed to
brightness. As opposed to hue and brightness, saturation is the
characteristic that indicates the degree of vividness.

Relationship between hue, brightness and saturation (color model)
Hue, brightness and saturation are the elements that we call the "three attributes of color". We can think of
their affects using the solid object shown in figure 1, where the outer edge is the hue, the vertical axis is the
brightness, and the horizontal axis from the center is the saturation.
Assigning colors to the solid object, representing the three attributes of color, shown in figure 1 produces the
color model shown in figure 2. Although the level of saturation differs for each hue and degree of brightness,
creating a complex color model, we can get a better understanding of the conditions under which the hue,
brightness and saturation vary.

specified settings by printing a proof copy.
Parameter Description
Brightness This parameter can be used to make the image either lighter or darker.
Contrast This parameter can be used to make the image either crisper or smoother.
Saturation This parameter can be used to adjust the vividness of the colors in the image.
Red This parameter can be used to adjust the level of red in the image.
Green This parameter can be used to adjust the level of green in the image.
Blue This parameter can be used to adjust the level of blue in the image.
Hue This parameter can be used to adjust the hue. The hue is divided into red, blue and yel-
low. By adjusting the hue, the image can be made either more reddish or more bluish.
Copy Density This parameter can be used to adjust the copy density.
Sharpness This parameter emphasizes the edges of text so that they can be read more easily. In
addition, this parameter can be used to make an overly sharp image softer or a blurry
image clearer.
Color Balance This parameter can be used to adjust the individual concentrations of yellow (Y), magen-
ta (M), cyan (C), and black (K).
• Increasing the red tinge increases the amount of yellow and magenta or decreases
the amount of cyan.
• Increasing the green tinge increases the amount of yellow and cyan or decreases
the amount of magenta.
• Increasing the blue tinge increases the amount of magenta and cyan or decreases
the amount of yellow.
• Increasing the yellow tinge increases the amount of yellow or decreases the amount
of magenta and cyan.
• Increasing the black tinge increases the amount of black.
