Setting Basic Scanning Conditions

This section provides an overview of the basic setting items that are the minimum requirements when configuring the scanner settings.

Confirming Basic Conditions for Scanning

When you scan a document, make sure you confirm the [Color mode], [Dots per inch], [Page Size], and [Scanning Side] basic conditions in the settings screen of the scanner driver.

Color mode

Select the scanning mode.

[Advanced Text Enhancement II] removes or processes the background color and background surrounding text to enhance the text for easy reading.

[Detect automatically] saves color images for color documents, and grayscale images for black and white documents.

Dots per inch

Select the scanning resolution.

Higher resolutions provide clearer images but result in larger file sizes and slower scanning.

When [Detect automatically] is specified, the resolution is detected automatically from the content printed in the document.

Page Size

Select the page size that matches the document to be scanned.

If [Detect automatically] is selected, the edges of the document are detected and images that match the size of the document are saved.

Scanning Side

Select which of the sides of the document to scan.

If the scanning side is set to [Skip blank page], the images of blank pages are deleted when images are saved.
