Parent topic: Solving Scanned Image Quality Problems Line of Dots Appears in All Scanned Images If a line of dots appears in all your scanned images, clean the scanner glass with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth or use a small amount of glass cleaner on the cloth, if necessary. Paper towels are not recommended. Caution: Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the scanner glass. If you are scanning from the ADF, try cleaning the ADF and scan again.

If you are scanning from the ADF, try cleaning the ADF and scan again. Parent topic: Solving Scanned Image Quality Problems Related topics Placing Originals on the Product Image is Distorted or Blurry If a scanned image appears distorted or blurry, try these solutions: • Make sure your original is not wrinkled or warped. This may prevent the original from laying flat on the scanner glass. • Do not move your original or your product during scanning. • Your product will not operate properly while tilted at an angle. Place your product on a flat, stable surface that extends beyond its base in all directions. • Adjust these Epson Scan 2 settings (if available) and try scanning again: • Increase the Resolution setting. • If the Image Type setting is Black & White, adjust the Threshold setting. • If the Image Type setting is Color or Grayscale, select the Unsharp Mask setting. • If the Image Type setting is Black & White, select Text Enhancement. If the Image Type setting is Color or Grayscale, change the Text Enhancement setting to High. 295
