6.Contrast. Select a Contrast setting from Low () to High () or enter the contrast value in the text field. Valid values are 0 to 255. For gray scale images only.

∙A low contrast value produces a scanned output of mostly midtones (more subtle change in gray levels are detected).

∙A high contrast value produces a scanned output of mostly blacks and whites (only large changes in gray levels are detected).

7.Brightness. Select a Brightness setting from Low () to High () or enter the brightness value in the text field. Valid values are 0 to 255.

∙A low brightness value produces a darker image.

∙A high brightness value produces a lighter image.

8.Despeckle. Select a Despeckle value to reduce the amount of noise or stray spots (specks, etc.) on an image. Select a value of 0, 1 or 2 from the list box or use the slide bar to make a despeckle selection.

The value you select will depend on how clean or speckled the image is. If there are no specks on the image, select 0. Despeckle is for bi-tonal images only.

9.Scan Output. Select the desired Scan Output depending upon the type of images in the application.

∙Bi-tonal: each image will be processed as a single-page TIFF file using CCITT Group 3 or 4 compression (for black and white images).

∙16 gray: each image will be processed as a single-page TIFF file using JBIG compression (for 16-level gray scale images).

∙256 gray: each image will be processed as a single-page TIFF file using JPEG compression (for 256-level gray scale images).

NOTES:

∙For Duplex Processing, the Scan Output setting must be the same for both the Front and Back settings.

∙When Film View is selected as the Scan Area, it is suggested that you select 256 gray as the Scan Output.

10.Sharpening. Select a Sharpening option.

∙Normal: used to accentuate the fine details of an image. Normal is typically used to enhance the detail of an image which contains small print.

∙Low: used to enhance images containing dot matrix text and/or images printed with shaded or colored backgrounds using halftone screens. This option reduces background noise.

∙Photo: if the image is comprised mainly of photographs.

∙Photo & Text: if the image is a mix of text, line art, and photographs (i.e., for check camera-sorter films).

∙Text: if the image is mostly text.
