4.0 How ScanWizard Pro Handles Scanner Profiles

This section describes how ScanWizard Pro handles

scanner profiles. You may skip this section if you are not

interested in technical details.

Scanner profiles created by 3

party profilers will not be

listed in ScanWizard Pro because these profiles does not include

some required basic information required such as scanner model

code and the media type.

Scanner model code (in the "Device Model" field of the ICC

profile header) is a unique code for every Microtek scanner model

and the media type (in the "Device Attributes" field of the ICC

profile header) is what the scanner profile is used for: reflective or

transmissive.

The filtering mechanism is necessary to avoid possible

error of choosing an incorrect scanner profile.
