Threshold Setting
The Threshold slider can be used to adjust the threshold value (the demarcation between black and white) of black and white images. Images are collection of data assigned varying brightness values. Grayscale and Color images express the brightness with 8 or 12 bit values whereas Black and White images express the brightness with only two values, black (0) and white (255). Accordingly, a point has to be determined either black or white. This point is called the threshold value. By changing the threshold value, you can alter the appearance of image. The default setting is 128.
To adjust threshold value, drag the slider or input the value directly into the box (click the box and type the number from 0 to 255) in FB1200S tab.
Descreen
Moiré patterns occasionally appear when items printed at high resolutions are scanned. To reduce this phenomenon, scan photographs and other high- resolution prints with the descreen activated. Deactivate descreen to scan lower resolution items, such as newspapers, books and magazine text.
•The Descreen is unavailable when the scanning resolution is set for 601 dpi or more.
•Descreen returns to the previous setting when a scanning job is started with a parent software application that cannot display the ScanGear
