With the MultiPASS Desktop Manager, the MultiPASS C50 can scan documents at 300 dpi, and electro-enhanced 400 dpi and 600 dpi. In addition, when using applications that support the TWAIN scanning standard, such as ScanGear 4.0 TWAIN, you can adjust the resolution in 1 dpi increments from 30 to 600 dpi.

TWAIN compatible

The MultiPASS C50 supports the TWAIN scanning standard, which allows you to scan images using any graphics or optical character recognition (OCR) application that also supports the TWAIN standard.

Colour scanning is not possible from the MultiPASS Desktop Manager, but can be done through any application that supports the TWAIN standard.
