Scanner Setting Guidelines

This overview of scanner settings will give you a little

background for using your scanning software. The messages

on the screen and your software manual should be your main

guide to scanning, but this section can supplement your

understanding of your software’s on-screen menus.

Each 4 icon indicates a setting that you make or check. The first

two are the most important.

Note:

Your software may use a somewhat different order or slightly different

terminology.

lmage type or mode

For the best and most efficient scans, you need to know which

type of images you are scanning: drawings, black and white

photographs, or color photographs. The corresponding terms

used by scanning software are line art, gray scale, and color.

Line art

This is the setting for drawings, including all drawings or

pictures made up of black and white only, with no gray tones,

such as the ones below.
