Using the Unsharp Mask Filter

If you have photographic images that look slightly fuzzy or indistinct, you can
sharpen them by turning on the Unsharp Mask Filter in Office or Professional Mode.
(In Home Mode, the filter is automatically applied and you cannot deselect it.)

1. Preview your image, then marquee-select the area you want to scan.

2. In Office Mode, select

Unsharp Mask Filter

in the Image Adjustments section.

In Professional Mode, scroll down to the Adjustments section and then select

Unsharp Mask Filter

, as shown below:

3. In Professional Mode, click (Windows) or (Macintosh) and then choose a

Level to increase or decrease the effect.

Note: The Unsharp Mask Filter is not available if you’ve selected Color Smoothing,
Halftone, or Black & White as the Image Type.

You cannot see the effect of this filter on the preview screen. Check your results on the
scanned image.
