Resolution
You can select the resolution of
scans from 100 dpi, 200 dpi, 300
dpi, 400 dpi, 600 dpi and Custom
Resolution. The factory default is
"100 dpi".
Note
The higher the resolution, the
better the quality of the scan da-
ta. However, you should keep
in mind that this also increases
the size of the data. If you han-
dle a lot of data, high-resolution
scans put more strain on the de-
livery server and the system.
For example, an A3, 11" x 17"
(DLT) size original, scanned in
"Color" at 600 dpi, One-sided,
yields a file of 200 MB. For this
reason, it is recommended to
scan images at high resolutions
only when absolutely neces-
sary.
If you select "Custom Resolu-
tion", you can select a resolution
between 100 and 600 dpi by in-
crements of 1 dpi.
Scan size
You can select the scan area for the
original. The factory default is
"Auto".
Auto
You can let the automatic sizing
function set the size of the area
to be scanned.
