Scanning Tips
Reducing the File Size of An Images:
Change the scan mode. Color mode collects the most amount of information and therefore requires more memory than either grayscale or black and white mode.
Reduce the resolution.
Reduce the scan area.
Determining the Correct Amount of Resolution:
In many cases a high-resolution image will do nothing more but dramatically increase the file size, take up more disk space, and slow down the process.
Internet Applications: For e-mailing color photos or pasting images on Web sites, a resolution of 100 dpi is the best choice. This is because the actual viewable resolution of the average monitor is 72 dpi. Additionally, download times are dramatically reduced.
Printing to Ink Jet Printers: Check your printer documentation for recommended printer resolution settings. We recommend ranges between 75-300 dpi in general. Only use a higher scanning resolution (300 dpi and above) for smaller images when detail must be captured in a small area because it will be enlarged later.
Laser and Commercial Printers: When printing an image to a laser printer or commercial printing press, it is important to understand the process in terms of line screen (a.k.a., LPI). Line screens are the number of screen lines per inch when an image is halftoned. Halftoning is the process of breaking the image down into a series of dots to reproduce continuous-tone art when printing on a press. A general rule when printing in one of these two manners is to scan one and a half to two-times the amount of the line screen. Laser printers that have resolution ranges of 300 and 600 dpi will have line screens between 50 and 100. Typical commercial printing is done at an average line
