Adjusting Sharpness
(when scanning or copying)

There are seven sharpness levels which control the appearance of fine detail in scanned images and copy jobs.

The solution to getting the image to look good, without creating image quality problems, is to increase or decrease sharpness in small increments. See About the Sharpness control.

To adjust sharpness

  1. In the Xerox Nuvera user interface, click the Copy button.
  2. Click the Image Quality tab.
  3. Click the Image Adjustments button.
  4. Move the Sharpness slider right or left to increase or decrease (respectively) the amount of sharpness.

TIP: To see the impact of the Sharpness control, try scanning a photo from your wallet and/or copying a light pencil line drawing in photo mode. Scan and proof them with different sharpness settings.
