Making the final scan

Before making the final scan, the input and output parameters must be specified. While it’s possible to input the scan settings yourself, DiMAGE Scan Utility gives you an easier choice - the Job function. This function automatically loads the scan settings based on the final use of the image. The scan-setting dialog box is located on the left of both the index scan and prescan windows.

The Standard Scan Utility contains over 100 Job files to cover a wide range of image use. To create your own Job files or to input the scan settings manually, see page 54. For a list of Job parameters, see page 92.
