Page 71

Glossy color photo will not scan clearly

Cause:

Optical interference created by the photo adhering to document glass

 

produces striped patterns

Solution 1:

Gently press down on the document cover

Solution 2:

Move the photo on the document glass to break the adhesion

Solution 3:

Clean the document glass (See p. 76)

 

 

Stripes appear on scan of publication

Cause:

Moiré effect from scan of publication at low resolution (print screen lines

 

highlighted by optical interference, producing striped patterns). This effect

 

may occur with particular combinations of printed matter screen line

 

densities and scanning resolutions

Solution:

Rescan at different resolutions or turn on the [Descreen] option (See the

 

ScanGear CS-S or Plug-in Module CS-S Users Guide electronic manual).

 

 

Whitened edges on image scanned from thick book

Cause:

Scanner employs an ultra-sensitive scanning unit that picks up ambient light

 

entering around the edges of the book

Solution:

Cover the book and document glass with a dark cloth to prevent ambient

 

light from affecting the scan

 

 

Slow scanning speed

Cause:

Resolution is set higher than necessary

Solution:

Lower the resolution.
