SCAN MODE consists of three buttons - Color
Photo, B/W Photo and Text. It is very important
that you always choose the appropriate scan mode
for the type of document you are scanning and
printing.
Color Photo Mode - The color

longest time and uses the most memory
but the resulting images are truly
impressive. This mode should only be
used with color printers.
B/W Photo Mode - The black and
white photo mode scans images in black
and white and can simulate 256
different shades of gray to give the
resulting black and white images
shadow and depth. This mode is best
used when color is not necessary in the

when no color printer is available.
Using this mode to scan black and
white or even color images, will result
in high-quality black and white output
(the color will automatically be
