Understanding scan profile options
Original Size
This option sets the size of the documents you are going to scan. When Original Size is set to Mixed Sizes, you can scan
an original document that contains mixed paper sizes (letter
‑
and legal
‑
size pages).
Resolution
This option adjusts the output quality of your file. Increasing the image resolution increases the file size and the time
needed to scan your original document. Image resolution can be decreased to reduce the file size.
Color
This option enables or disables color for the scanned image.
Content
This option lets you specify the content type and source of the original document.
