Whiten Background
Sometimes, you may be copying an aged text that turned
brown or a book printed on unbleached/recycled paper.
Doing so often results in light gray background. Select
this option to get rid of the unpleasant shade, that helps
to save ink or toner when you print it.
This function is only applicable when you are scanning
text in grayscale. A non-text original, say a photograph,
when scanned with this box checked, can look unnatural.
Color Match
This is an effective tool for ensuring that the colors
captured by the scanner more accurately reflect the actual
colors of the original image. Without color matching the
scanner captures a wider range of colors but these colors
may not accurately match the true colors of the original
image, making the scan appear different from the original.
Color Balance
This tool balances the lightest and darkest areas of an
image so that they are evenly distributed.

Output Scaling
Output scaling allows you to enlarge/shrink the
size of the final output image. Adjust the scaling
by using the slide bar or typing the desired setting
in the Output Scaling box. For example, setting
the Output Scaling to 200% will double the amount
of pixels contained in the image.
Width and Height
The Width and Height values show the dimensions
of the image area inside the Crop Frame. You can
change the measurement unit to centimeters or
inches.
Image Size
Image Size displays the amount of disk space
needed to display or save the image outlined by
the Crop Frame. The Image Size information is
automatically updated anytime you change any of
the scan settings or resize the Crop Frame.
