1 Introduction
The
Kodak
i1800 Series Scanners
are high-volume production
scanners which include image processing technology that can improve
image quality and sometimes make the reproduction better than the
original.
You can use the ISIS Driver or TWAIN Datasource (both are available
on the CD that is included with the scanner) or
Kodak
Capture Software
to enable image processing.
Other popular scanning applications are also compatible with these
scanners, however these applications may not be able to access all of
the image processing options. Please refer to your vendor’s
documentation for specific information.
The
Kodak
i1800 Series Scanners provide both color/grayscale and
black and white scanning simultaneously with throughput speeds up to
200 ppm.

Appendix A, TWAIN Image Processing Terminology
— the TWAIN
Datasource for the
Kodak
i1800 Series Scanners have been updated to
include new terminology for traditional Kodak image processing
functions. See this appendix for a comparative chart to map between
terms.
NOTE: The scanned images used in this guide were selected for the
challenges presented to a typical scanner due to the low-
contrast characteristics of the images.
