Scanning Tips
Getting the best scan possible depends on several factors, including the quality of your
original and the resolution you select. The better your original is, the better your scan
will be. To get the best possible scan, keep the document table clean, and make sure
the document is flat against the glass surface. You can make many corrections in your
scanning software. For additional photo retouching, use an image editing program
such as Adobe Photoshop Elements.
Selecting Resolution
Resolution refers to how many dots per inch (dpi) or dots per centimeter (dpcm) your
image contains. The best resolution for a scanned image depends on the type of image
you’re scanning and your final output device.
For most images, use a scanning resolution that is approximately one third of your
output resolution. For example, use a scanning resolution of 200 dpi if you want to
print at 600 dpi. If you’re scanning an image to view on-screen, choose a resolution
of 96 dpi.
