Scan Resolution Guidelines The Resolution setting, measured in dpi (dots per inch), controls the amount of detail captured in your scans. Increasing the resolution raises the amount of detailed captured but comes with the following disadvantages: • Larger file sizes • It takes longer to scan your originals, send/receive your scans by email or fax, and to print your scans • The image may become too large to fit on your display or print on paper Select a Resolution setting based on how you plan to use the scanned image: • Email, view on a computer screen, or post on the web: 96 to 150 dpi • Print, fax, convert to editable text (OCR), or create a text searchable PDF: 200 to 300 dpi Note: If you plan to enlarge a scanned image so you can print it at a larger size, increase the resolution by the same amount you will increase the image size to retain a high image quality. For example, if you normally scan your image in its original size at 300 dpi but plan to double the image size later, change the Resolution setting to 600 dpi.
