The printer can't print the image, or the printout is garbled or isn't an image. Problem Solution Your printer and computer may not be securely connected. Check that the printer is properly connected to the computer and is correctly set up; see your printer manual. Your software is not installed correctly for your printer. Check that your application software is properly installed and set up for your printer; see your application software manual. The quality of an enlarged image is worse than when it's scanned at its original size. Problem Solution You didn't increase your Resolution setting to compensate for the image enlargement. If you enlarge your target image size by scaling or by selecting a larger Target size, be sure to increase the Resolution setting by the same proportion to retain your image quality. For example, if you select 300 dpi as the resolution setting for an image scanned at 100% of its original size and then scale the image 200%, you should increase (in this case, double) the resolution to 600 dpi to retain the same image quality. See Selecting Basic Settings for instructions on changing the Resolution setting. For additional information on selecting scanning resolution, see your Scanner Basics book. Troubleshooting Page 93

Troubleshooting

The printer can’t print the image, or the printout is garbled or isn’t an image.
The quality of an enlarged image is worse than when it’s scanned at its original size.
Problem
Solution
Your printer and
computer may not be
securely connected.
Check that the printer is properly connected to the computer and is
correctly set up; see your printer manual.
Your software is not
installed correctly for
your printer.
Check that your application software is properly installed and set up for
your printer; see your application software manual.
Problem
Solution
You didn’t increase
your Resolution setting
to compensate for the
image enlargement.
If you enlarge your target image size by scaling or by selecting a larger
Target size, be sure to increase the Resolution setting by the same
proportion to retain your image quality. For example, if you select
300 dpi as the resolution setting for an image scanned at 100% of its
original size and then scale the image 200%, you should increase (in
this case, double) the resolution to 600 dpi to retain the same image
quality. See
Selecting Basic Settings
for instructions on changing the
Resolution setting.
For additional information on selecting scanning resolution, see your
Scanner Basics
book.
