6.3 SELECTING A PROPER IMAGE TYPE
Select image type through the mode from the scanner
user interface for your own purpose.
Each image type is described as follows:
Line art(Black and White)
LineArt presents the image in black and white only and
there are no intermediate shades of gray in between. That
means each pixel of the image is 100% black or 100%
white. LineArt is the best choice of image type if you want
to scan text, pen or ink drawing. Since only 1-bit of black or
white information is required for each pixel*, the disk space
required for saving lineArt image is only about 1/24 of that
required to save 24-bit true color images.
Lineart Image
*Pixel: A combination of two words: picture and element, a pixel
is a single dot on a computer display or in a digital image.
