17 Scanning Scanning Overview You can use your Dell™ 1355cn/1355cnw Multifunction Color Printer to turn pictures and text into editable images on your computer. PaperPort® is a program that enables you to organize, find and share all your paper and digital documents, and is supplied with your printer. The resolution setting to use when you scan an item depends on the item type and how you plan to use the image or document after you scan it in to your computer. For the best results, use these recommended settings. Type Documents Documents of poor quality or that contain small text Photographs and pictures Images for an inkjet printer Images for a high-resolution printer Resolution 300 dpi black-and-white or 200 dpi grayscale or color 400 dpi black-and-white or 300 dpi grayscale 100-200 dpi color or 200 dpi grayscale 150-300 dpi 300-600 dpi Scanning beyond these recommended resolutions may exceed the capabilities of the application. If you require a resolution above those recommended in the above table, you should reduce the size of the image by previewing (or pre-scan) and cropping before scanning the image. NOTE: You can use PaperPort's built-in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to copy text from scanned documents so that you can use and edit the text in any text editing, word processing, or spreadsheet program. The OCR process requires textual images scanned at 150-600 dpi and 300 dpi or 600 dpi is recommended for graphics. Scanning 253
