quality, if necessary. Epson Scan offers a variety of settings for improving color, sharpness,
contrast, and other aspects affecting image quality.
Before you make adjustments, be sure to click the image or marquee for the area you want to
adjust. In Professional Mode, you may need to scroll down to the Adjustments area of the main
Epson Scan window.
The table below describes the settings available in Home and/or Professional Mode. For details
on adjusting these settings, click
Help in the Epson Scan window.
When you are finished making adjustments, you can size your scanned images (see Selecting
