This mode is best suited for making copies from photos printed on photographic 
paper, or making copies of images printed with halftone dots (i.e., printed photos).

Original Type Selection
Combinations of these three modes (Text, Text/Photo, and Photo) cannot\
 be selected at the same time. If you 
select one of these modes, the previously set mode is canceled.
If you make copies of an original containing halftones, such as a printed photograph, using the Photo mode, 
the moiré effect (a shimmering, wavy pattern) may occur. In this ca\
se, you can lessen the moiré effect by 
using the Sharpness mode. (See chapter 3, “Copying,” in the Refer\
ence Guide.)
If you select the Automatic Exposure Adjustment mode, the original type \
mode is grayed out and fixed to 
Text mode. If you select the Text/Photo or Photo mode, the exposure can only be adjusted manually.
If the original is a transparency, select the original type, then adjust\
 the exposure to the most appropriate 
level for the original.
