Getting the Most From Your Scanner

4. Unless you’re using a specialized color space for your work, it is recommended

that you select

Adobe RGB

as the Target. This provides a wide color gamut that

works well for monitors, ink jet printers, and the majority of output devices.

5. If you are using Adobe Photoshop 5.0 or above, select

Display preview using

monitor compensation

to match colors between images viewed in EPSON

Scan and Photoshop. (Do not select this setting if you are using Photoshop
Elements.)

When you preview your image in EPSON Scan, click the

Auto Adjust

button to

apply the color profiles you have selected. Before printing your image, be sure to turn
off any color management settings in your printer driver software. See the manual for
the application you’re printing from for more information on using color
management.

If you are not using ICC color profiles as described above, do the following instead:

1. Open EPSON Scan, then click the

Configuration

button.

2. Select the

Color Control

option to use

EPSON Scan’s built-in exposure and color
adjustments.

3. Select

Continuous auto exposure

to

automatically adjust the exposure and color settings when you preview an image
in EPSON Scan. The settings are recalculated whenever you create, move, or
resize a marquee in the preview screen (see page 16).

4. Choose a

Gamma

setting from 1.0 to 3.0 that matches your monitor. If you are

not sure which setting to use, choose the default setting of 1.8.
