When [Text enhance] is selected, [Bleed-through reduction] cannot be selected.

Resolution (dpi)

Select the scanning resolution (100, 150, 200, 300, 400, or 600 dpi).

Scanning Side

Select the method for scanning the document (Simplex, Duplex, Skip blank page, Folio).

Hint

The Skip Blank Page option scans both sides of a document and skips saving any image it determines to be a blank page.

You can adjust the sensitivity of the Skip Blank Page option under [Contents detection sensitivity].

The initial value for the Skip Blank Page option is set to “90.” As you lower the value from the default setting, pages of the document with text become more likely to be skipped as well. As you raise the value from the default setting, pages of the document that are blank become less likely to be skipped.

IMPORTANT

The scanning speed may be reduced when [Skip Blank Page] is selected.

A resolution of [400 dpi] or more cannot be set when [Folio] is selected. In addition, [Double feed detection by Ultrasonic] cannot be selected.

Prescan

Enables you to preview an image of the first page of the document before scanning the entire document.

Hint

Scanning pauses after the first page of the document is scanned, and the image of the first page is displayed.

Use the displayed image to confirm and adjust the brightness and contrast. Press [Continue] to confirm the adjusted brightness and contrast for the first image and continue scanning.

File name

Specify a name for the image file to be sent.
