EPSON Scanner Features

EPSON scanners feature the following special attributes.

A unified control code structure

All scanner features are controlled by EPSON’s ESC/I scanner control codes, so the commands for each feature are the same for all scanner models. All models are downwardly compatible, so programs written for lower level scanners will work identically on upper level scanners.

Internal image data processing circuits

Each scanner contains circuitry capable of processing image data before it is sent to the computer; the type of processing is specified by control codes. By preprocessing image data, the computer can process data faster with a reduction in image distortion.
