Color Content
Select one of the following options for automatic color detection.
•
Low
: documents require only a small amount of color to be saved as
color or grayscale images. Used for capturing documents that are
primarily black text with small logos, or contain small amounts of
highlighted text or small colorful photos.
•
Medium
: documents require more color, as compared with the Low
option, before they are saved as color or grayscale images.
•
High
: documents require more color, as compared with the Medium
option, before they will be saved as color or grayscale images. Used
for distinguishing documents containing medium- to large-size
colorful photos from plain black text. Photos with neutral colors may
require adjustments to the Color Amount or Color Threshold values in
order to be captured correctly.
•
Custom
: makes the
Color Amount
and/or
Color Threshold
options
available.
NOTE: When setting Auto Color Detect values, start with the
Medium
option and scan a typical job set. If too many
documents were returned as color/grayscale vs. black and
white, then change to the
High
option and re-run the job. If
too few documents were returned as color/grayscale vs.
black and white, then change to the
Low
option and re-run
the job. If none of these options provide the desired result,
select
Custom
to manually adjust Color Amount and/or Color
Threshold.
