Question Tip
When should I use Text mode? • Text mode should be used when text preservation is the main goal of the scan, and
preserving images copied from the original document is not a concern.
• Text is best used for receipts, carbon copy forms, and documents that only contain
text or fine line art.
When should I use
Text/Photo mode? • Text/Photo mode should be used when scanning an original document that
contains a mixture of text and graphics.
• Text/Photo is best used for magazine articles, business graphics, and brochures.
When should I use Photo mode? Photo mode should be used when scanning photos printed on a laser printer or taken
from a magazine or newspaper.
