6. Choose OK. You see the EPSON TWAIN advanced screen. 7. Select the Scan button. The scanner scans using the information in the calibration profile to produce the best possible image for your printer. Selecting the Correct Resolution To select the best resolution for scanning an image, you must consider three factors: Cl Type of image you are scanning P Final output device type CI Acceptable file size. You'll select different resolutions for scanning line drawings and halftones than for scanning photographs. The final output device is the device on which you plan to ultimately print the image. This may be a printer connected to your computer or a commercial printing press. In addition, the file size of the scanned image may determine the resolution you select. The file size may be very large for high resolution scans, taking up valuable disk space and causing longer processing or printing time. Generally, the higher the resolution you choose, the larger the file. Note that a very high resolution scan may not produce a betterquality printed image because your output device may not recognize the high resolution information stored in the file. In other words, there is no point in scanning at a higher resolution than your output device is capable of. To keep file sizes manageable, select the lowest resolution that provides acceptable quality on your output device. 23

Selecting the Correct Resolution
To select the best resolution for scanning an image, you must
consider three factors:
Cl
Type of image you are
scanning
P
Final output device type
CI
Acceptable file size.
You’ll select different resolutions for scanning line drawings
and halftones than for scanning photographs.
The final output device is the device on which you plan to
ultimately print the image. This may be a printer
connected to
your computer or a commercial printing press.
In addition, the file size of the scanned image may determine
the resolution you select. The file size may be very large for
high resolution scans, taking up valuable disk space and
causing longer processing or printing time. Generally, the
higher the resolution you choose, the larger the file.
Note that a very high resolution scan may not produce a
betterquality printed image because your output device may
not recognize the high resolution information stored in the file.
In other words, there is no point in scanning at a higher
resolution than your output device is capable of. To keep file
sizes manageable, select the lowest resolution that provides
acceptable quality on your output device.
