stubborn dust or scratch marks from your originals.

DIGITAL ICE Technology can remove dust marks that the Dust Removal feature cannot. However, it takes longer to scan
using DIGITAL ICE Technology and also uses more of your system resources. It is best to try removing dust marks using
Dust Removal before using DIGITAL ICE Technology. See
Removing Dust Marks with the Dust Removal Feature for
details.
Note:
You cannot use Dust Removal and DIGITAL ICE Technology at the same time.
Do not use DIGITAL ICE Technology to scan originals that do not contain dust or scratch marks;
otherwise your scanned image(s) may be distorted or blurred.
Images scanned with DIGITAL ICE Technology may appear softer than your original images.
This feature is not available if the Show Texture check box in the Configuration dialog box is
selected.
Before using DIGITAL ICE Technology, make sure your system meets the requirements in DIGITAL ICE Technology
Specifications .
