The best resolution for a scanned image depends on
the type of image you are scanning and your final
output device. The following table shows the best
scanning resolutions for the most common
applications:
The higher a resolution you select, the larger the
resulting image file. For example, an 8.5 x 11 inch
original scanned at 300 dpi can produce a 24 MB file.
