Scanning Tips

Getting the best scan possible depends on several factors, including the quality of your original and the resolution you select. The better your original is, the better your scan will be. To get the best possible scan, keep the document table clean, and make sure the document is flat against the glass surface. You can make many corrections in your scanning software (EPSON Scan, or LaserSoft Imaging SilverFast if you have the Photo version of the scanner). For additional photo retouching, use an image editing program such as Adobe Photoshop Elements.
