Descreening images

Use the Descreen command to reduce undesirable patterns in printed items you are scanning. An example of an undesirable pattern is a moiré pattern, or the circles that often appear on pictures printed in newspapers.

Note that scanning takes longer when this command is selected. Use Descreen only when you see undesirable patterns on the scan of a printed original. When Descreen is turned on or off, a new preview scan starts and image adjustments are reset.

To descreen images

On the Advanced menu, click Descreen. Select the option again to turn it off.
