4) Press [START] key. (The paper feed tray is selected.)

NOTE: When [P] key is pressed after entering an adjustment value

in this simulation, the adjustment value is set. When
START key is pressed, the adjustment value is set and
copying is performed.

• "Set value - 128" is added to the shading adjustment value (SIM

46-17).

1) Select "SCANNER EXP. LEVEL" with 10-key.

2) Press [START] key.

3) Enter the image density adjustment value.

4) Press [P] key or [START] key.

NOTE: When this simulation is performed to adjust the scan image

densities, all the image densities in all the scan modes are
changed to the image density level set with this simulation.

That is, the image densities set with SIM 46-22, 23, 24, 25,
and 45 are changed to the image density level set with this
simulation.

NOTE: Only the set value is changed and no printing is performed.
