Back Previous Next TOP ■ Determining Resolution The data in the image you scan is a collection of dots carrying information about brightness and color. The density of these dots is called "resolution," and "dpi" (dots per inch) refers to the number of dots in one inch. You can specify a resolution in [Image Quality] in the MF Toolbox settings dialog box, or in [Output Resolution] in the ScanGear MF. ● Images for Display on a Monitor Images for display on a monitor in general should be scanned at a resolution of 75 dpi. ● Images for Printing Images to be printed should be scanned at a resolution which corresponds to the resolution of the printer. NOTE With a color printer, the colors are expressed as a certain percentage of ink pigment so scanning your document at half the resolution of the printer should be fine. Table of Contents Index 3-38
