Kodak i1200 manual General tab

Page 53

General tab	The General tab allows you to define several image processing values
	that can be applied to your scanner.
	Scan as — select one of the following options:
	•	Color (24-bit): if you want your electronic image to be in color.
	•	Grayscale (8-bit): if you want your electronic image to have a range
		of varying shades of gray from black to white.
	•	Black and white (1-bit): if you want your electronic image to
		represent all elements of your document in black and white.

NOTE: The Scan As option is not available when Multiple Images per Side or One based on document content is being used. These options already imply a combination of two of the Scan As options.

Document type — select one of the following based on the documents you are scanning:

•Text with Graphics: the documents contain a mix of text, business graphics (bar graphs, pie charts, etc.) and line art.

•Text: the documents contain mostly text.

•Photographs: the documents contain mostly photos.

Media type — select one of the following options based on the texture/ weight of the paper you are scanning. Available options are: Plain Paper, Thin Paper, Glossy Paper, Card Stock, Magazine.

Resolution or dots per inch (dpi) — indicates the scanning resolution, which largely determines the quality of the scanned image. The greater the resolution, the better the reproduction. However, scanning at a higher resolution also increases scanning time and file size. The industry standard is 200 dpi (about 8 pixels/mm). Available resolutions are: 75, 100, 150, 200, 240, 300, 400, 600 and 1200 dpi.

Compression — squeezes the file to decrease the total size. Black and white images are normally compressed using a CCITT standard called Group IV, often used in conjunction with TIFF files. Color and grayscale images are often compressed using JPEG techniques.

Quality — if you choose JPEG compression, select one of the quality options:

•Draft: smallest file size with draft image quality

•Good: larger file size with good image quality

•Better: larger file size with better image quality

•Best: larger file size with the best image quality

•Superior: largest file size with superior image quality
