with your printer. Please refer to the OS Compatibility
section of Printer Specifications in your Printer User’s
Guide.
You can check your printer name in the supplied CD-
ROM.
The maximum resolution that can be achieved
depends upon various factors, including computer
speed, available disk space, memory, the size of the
image being scanned, and bit depth settings. Thus,
depending on your system and what you are scanning,
you may not be able to scan at certain resolutions,
especially using enhanced dpi.
