2. Scan Type
Select one of the following type:
•
Black & White
Use for text or line art images.
•
Gray (Error Diffusion)
Use for photographic images or graphics. (Error Diffusion is a method for creating simulated gray images
without using true gray dots. Black dots are put in a specific pattern to give a gray appearance.)
•
True Gray
Use for photographic images or graphics. This mode is more exact due to using up to 256 shades of gray.
•
256 Color
Use for simple color illustrations that do not use the full color spectrum. Uses up to 256 colors to create images.
