Ripple Patterns Appear in an Image

You may see a ripple pattern (called a moiré) in scanned images of printed documents. This is caused
by interference from differing pitches in the scanner's screen and your original's halftone screen. To
reduce this effect, adjust these Epson Scan 2 settings (if available) and try scanning again:

• Select the

Descreening

setting on the Advanced Settings tab.

• Select a lower

Resolution

setting.

• Place the original at a slightly different angle.
