Using Color Filters

Color filters can help eliminate color tinges (or an undesirable overall color tone) that exist in the original. You can also use filters to give your image a specific color effect.

When you click any point in the Color Filter wheel radials, that color is increased in the image. You can see numerical values for the amount of red, green, and blue to the right of the color wheel. To reset the values to 0, click the center of the wheel.

When you choose the Comparison icon for Color Filter, you can select from a series of comparison samples of the image using different color filters.

Note:

Color filters are ignored during 3-pass scanning.

Inverting an Image

Note:

To scan a negative image and invert it, your scanner must have a Transparency Unit installed and you must select Transparency Unit as your Document Source option.

To invert an image, preview the image and choose the Invert icon. You see the inverted image in the preview window.
