Software Guide (Scanning)

You can adjust the following settings in the [Main] tab.

[Select source]

Select where the document is placed.

¡¡

[Platen Glass]

¡¡

[Document Feeder]

[Color Mode]

Select the type of document and the way in which it will be scanned.

¡¡

[Black and White]

Select this mode when outputting photos and other items to monochrome printer. The image is

displayed in black and white. The contrast in the image is divided at certain levels (threshold values)

into black and white and is displayed in two colors. Threshold can be set on the [Halftone] tab.

¡¡

[Greyscale]

Select this mode to scan black and white photos or monochrome images. The image is expressed in

a 0–256 scale of black and white.

¡¡

[Color (photo)]

Select this mode to scan color photos. The image is expressed in 256 levels (8 bit) of R(ed), G(reen)

and B(lue).

¡¡

[Color (Documents)]

Select this mode to scan color documents that include text or charts in addition to color photos. The

image is expressed in 256 levels (8 bit) of R(ed), G(reen) and B(lue).

¡¡

[Text Enhanced]

Select this mode to scan text more crisply, particularly to process it in an OCR program. The image

is displayed in black and white. The document is scanned in grayscale and then converted to black

and white and therefore takes longer than the [Black and White] setting.

[Output Resolution]

Select the resolution for the scan.

The higher the resolution (number), the more detail in your image; the lower the resolution (number),

the less detail.

Either click or type a resolution between 25–2400 dpi (in 1 dpi increments), or enter one of the values

4800, 7200 or 9600 dpi.
