To scan a large-size
c
olor image with a higher resolution (usually over
600 dpi) increases scan time and file size substantially and requires
huge system resources. Therefore, a higher resolution for color
scanning is recommended only when you scan a small area.
Brightness
Raising the brightness increases the amount of white in an image, making it
appear more washed out. Lowering the brightness may help you read light or faint
text.
You may adjust the brightness either way:
·
Slide the thumb of
the scroll bar to the right or left, which adds lightness or
darkness to all colors in your image.
·
Click the arrow signs on the right and left ends.
The current value is shown to right of each scroll bar.
Contrast
The higher the contrast, the sharper the image. The lower the contrast, the more
blurry an image will be.
You may adjust the contrast either way:
·
Slide the thumb of
the scroll bar to the right or left, which raises or lowers the
differences between light and dark colors in your image.
·
Click the arrow signs on the right and left ends.
The current value is shown to right of each scroll bar.
This feature is not available when
