Scan Setting Resolution 85RS-03E A scanned image is a group of dots which contain color and brightness information. The density of these dots is called the "resolution". The "dpi (dots per inch)" means the maximum dots a printer can print per inch. Set the resolution by specifying the following options. ☞ MF Toolbox -> [Image Quality] ☞ ScanGearMF -> the advanced mode tab -> [Output Resolution] To display the scanned image on a monitor Images are scanned at a resolution of 75 dpi, which is a typical monitor resolution. To print from the printer Scan the document at the printer's resolution. IMPORTANT To print the scanned image by scaling (enlarging/reducing) If you print the scanned image by doubling its current size, for example, the actual resolution decreases by half. To maintain sufficient print quality, you need to double the resolution, and vice versa. Resolution and data size If the resolution is doubled, the image size becomes four times larger. If the data size becomes too large, it may take considerably longer to process the image, consequently causing an insufficient memory error as well as other unexpected errors. To prevent this from happening, specify the minimum allowable resolution based on your purpose of the scan. NOTE When printing the scanned image from a color printer As a color printer uses several different color inks to reproduce colors, the resolution can be decreased by half. About the scanning resolution The maximum resolution is as following. ● Optical resolution: 600 dpi ● Software interpolated resolution: 9600 dpi 150

Setting Resolution
85RS-03E
A scanned image is a group of dots which contain color and brightness information. The density of these dots is
called the "resolution". The "dpi (dots per inch)" means the maximum dots a printer can print per inch. Set the
resolution by specifying the following options.
MF Toolbox -> [Image Quality]
ScanGearMF -> the advanced mode tab -> [Output Resolution]
To display the scanned image on a monitor
Images are scanned at a resolution of 75 dpi, which is a typical monitor resolution.
To print from the printer
Scan the document at the printer's resolution.
IMPORTANT
To print the scanned image by scaling (enlarging/reducing)
If you print the scanned image by doubling its current size, for example, the actual resolution decreases
by half. To maintain sufficient print quality, you need to double the resolution, and vice versa.
Resolution and data size
If the resolution is doubled, the image size becomes four times larger. If the data size becomes too large,
it may take considerably longer to process the image, consequently causing an insufficient memory error
as well as other unexpected errors. To prevent this from happening, specify the minimum allowable
resolution based on your purpose of the scan.
NOTE
When printing the scanned image from a color printer
As a color printer uses several different color inks to reproduce colors, the resolution can be decreased
by half.
About the scanning resolution
The maximum resolution is as following.
Optical resolution: 600 dpi
Software interpolated resolution: 9600 dpi
