Zoom Use the zoom function to reduce or enlarge the size of the output image. The zoom value can range from 50% to 200% in increments of 1%. Use the software to set the horizontal scan and vertical scan values independently; when the values are different, the display shows only the larger of the two values. Brightness There are seven brightness levels for scanning images, ranging from -3 (lightest) to 3 (darkest) with 0 (the default) as the normal setting. Use darker settings for faint original images, line art, and text characters. Use lighter settings for dark original images. You can combine the brightness function with all other functions.
