Scanning is Slow, Solving Scanned Image Quality Problems

Page 89 highlights

Scanning is Slow If scanning becomes slow, try these solutions: • Make sure your system meets the requirements for your operating system. If you are scanning a highresolution image, you may need more than the minimum requirements, such as a Hi-Speed USB port. If necessary, increase your system's memory. • Scan your original at a lower resolution, if possible. • If you are running virus protection or other security software, exclude the TWAIN.log files from monitoring or set the TWAIN.log file as read only (Windows). The TWAIN.log file is located within the Temp folder in your Windows Local or Local Settings folder. See your virus protection or security software instructions for details. • If you are scanning using DIGITAL ICE Technology, turn off the feature; scanning takes longer using DIGITAL ICE Technology.

Scanning is Slow
If scanning becomes slow, try these solutions:
• Make sure your system meets the requirements for your operating system. If you are scanning a high-
resolution image, you may need more than the minimum requirements, such as a Hi-Speed USB port.
If necessary, increase your system's memory.
• Scan your original at a lower resolution, if possible.
• If you are running virus protection or other security software, exclude the TWAIN.log files from
monitoring or set the TWAIN.log file as read only (Windows). The TWAIN.log file is located within the
Temp
folder in your Windows
Local
or
Local Settings
folder. See your virus protection or security
software instructions for details.
• If you are scanning using DIGITAL ICE Technology, turn off the feature; scanning takes longer using
DIGITAL ICE Technology.
