Image Settings
Main tab
The Main tab provides the following options:
Dots per inch (dpi) or resolution
— indicates the scanning resolution, which
largely determines the quality of the scanned image. The greater the resolution,
the better the reproduction. However, scanning at a higher resolution also
increases scanning time and file size.
Select a resolution value from the drop-down list. The default is 200 dpi.
Available resolutions are: 100, 150, 200, 240, 250, 300, 400, 500 and 600 dpi.
Cropping
— allows you to capture a portion of the document being scanned. All
cropping options can be used with color/grayscale and black and white images.
Front and Back cropping are independent, however, for simultaneous scanning,
color/grayscale and black and white cropping must be the same per side. Only
one cropping option can be assigned per image.
Automatic
: dynamically adjusts the cropping window for different
document sizes based on the edges of the image.
Aggressive
: eliminates any residual black border on any image edges. In
order to achieve this, there is a possibility that a small amount of image
data from the edge of the document may be lost.
Fixed to Transpor
t: (used for batches of same-sized documents) allows
you to define the area to be imaged. Fixed to Transport cropping is used
in conjunction with paper size and page layout and assumes you are
center-feeding your documents. If you are not using center feeding, you
must select the
Layout tab
to define your scan area.
Relative to Document: (zone processing)
: (used for batches of same-
sized documents) — zone processing is a floating fixed crop window (the
zone) located relative to the upper left corner of a document. It allows you
to select an area on the document to be delivered in either color/grayscale
or black and white format (a separate window for both black and white and
color/grayscale may be defined). Different parameters may be selected for
both the front and back of the image.
This option may be used in conjunction with Automatic cropping where a
separate color/grayscale or black and white area to be saved is desired. It
is useful in applications where a photograph, signature, embossment or
seal appears in a consistent area for an application (you may want that
small area in color/grayscale and the rest in black and white). To define a
zone, select the Layout tab.
