Specifying the resolution to scan the original ([Resolution])

Selecting the appropriate image quality level for the original ([Original Type])
Select the optimum settings for the original to scan it in the optimum image quality.
Setting | Description |

[Text] | Scans an original that consists primarily of text at the optimum level of image quality. This function sharpens the edges of each character, creating easy-to-read images. |

[Photo] | Scans an original consisting of only photos at the optimum image quality level. |

Adjusting the density to scan the original ([Density])
Adjust the density (Dark or Light) to scan the original.
Adjusting the background density of the original to be scanned ([Bkgd. Removal])
You can adjust the density of the background area for originals with colored backgrounds (newspaper, recycled paper, etc.) or originals that are so thin that text or images on the back would be scanned.
Setting | Description |
|---|---|
[Bleed Removal] | Adjust the density of the background color to prevent bleeding of the back of the paper when printing a 2-sided original that is so thin that the contents of the back side would be scanned. Selecting [Auto] automatically determines the density of the background color, and scans an original at the optimum background density level. |
[Discolor Adj.] | Adjust the density of the background color to scan an original with a colored background such as a map. Selecting [Auto] automatically determines the density of the background color, and scans an original at the optimum background density level. |
