SETTING COLOUR MODE

Overview

You can specify colour modes to make a copy.
Colour mode is ordinarily set to "Full Colour".
Auto
The machine automatically detects whether each original is colour or black & white and switches the mode appropriately (full colour for a colour original or black & white for a black & white original).
2 Colour
Extracts reddish colour used in the original to replace it with another colour and copies the original in this colour and black.For example, if Blue is the selected colour, the reddish portions included in the original is extracted and copied in blue. Any colours other than red are copied in black. (Reddish Colour)
It is also possible to extract colours other than black to replace them with another colour and copy the original in this colour and black. (Except Black)
Single Colour
The original is copied in a single colour regardless of the colours used in the original.

When colour mode is specified, the original is copied in Black & White if you tap the [B/W Start] key.
To change the default colour mode:
In "Setting mode (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Copy Function Settings] → [Initial Status Settings] → [Colour Mode].
To change the standard to detect Black & White and Colour:
In "Setting mode (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Device Control] → [Detect Standard in Auto Colour Mode]. When colour mode is set to auto, the discrimination point for detecting whether originals are colour or black and white can be set to one of 5 levels.
