Prescan Setup
The Prescan Setup command lets you determine the margin surrounding the prescan image and the
size of the prescan image.
To change the margin or size of the prescan image:
1. Go to the Preferences menu in the Preview window, and choose Prescan Setup.
2. When the Prescan Setup dialog box appears, specify your choices.
• Prescan Image Margin: The options here let you specify how wide or narrow the margin
around the scan frame is in the prescan image.
This is helpful because selecting the exact scan frame (through the Scan Frame tool) can
never be a completely accurate process, and what appears to have been selected by the scan
frame when you view the image in the lower-resolution overview may or may not actually
include the portion you wish. The margin — depending on how wide or narrow it is — can
then provide a berth or allowance for extending the boundaries of the scan frame around the
prescan image. Margin options include minimal, small, medium, and large.
•. Prescan Image Dimension: This option lets you specify how large the prescan image will
be: Full screen, 75%, 50%, or fit current preview window.
This option allows you to either shrink the preview window to maximize the use of space on
your monitor, or to expand the view of the image to full screen to see it in greater detail.
The larger the size, the higher the prescan resolution. The maximum prescan resolution is
the scanner's optical resolution.
