Preview scan when scanner button is pushed
When this checkbox is checked, each time you
push the
Scan
button on the scanner the scanner
automatically performs a
Preview
scan. This
means you can start a
Preview
scan with the
Scan
button.
When this checkbox is not checked, pushing the
Scan
button on the scanner does not start a
Preview
scan. You will need to start a
Preview
scan
by:
■
clicking
in the toolbar
-or-
■
choosing
Preview
from the
Scan
menu
Best Quality Scaling
When this checkbox is checked, the highest quality
scaling is applied to the final scan.
When this checkbox is not checked, scanning is
faster because normal quality scaling is applied to
the final scan.
Best Quality Sharpening
When this checkbox is checked, the highest quality
of sharpening is applied to the final scan.
When this checkbox is not checked, scanning is
faster because normal quality sharpening is
applied to the final scan.
Maximum Pixel Depth
When this checkbox is checked, the largest pixel
bit depth is applied to the scan to produce the
highest quality image.
When this checkbox is not checked, scanning is
faster for most output types because there is less
image data being processed. If your scanner is
connected to a parallel port, you may see a
significant improvement in performance without a
large degradation in image quality when you
remove the checkmark from this feature.
By default, when
HP PrecisionScan Pro
is
installed, all the checkboxes are checked in
the
Scanner
tab of the
HP PrecisionScan Pro
Preferences
dialog box.
