Scanning with the TWAIN Interface from PaperPort

Adjusting the Resolution

Resolution determines the amount of detail you can see in the scanned image. The resolution setting for a scan is in dots-per-inch (dpi). The higher the resolution, the finer the details. However, higher dpi settings also take longer to scan and produce larger file sizes. Usually the higher resolution settings are used for precision work, such as photographs or fine artwork.

The following figure shows the resolution options.

NOTE: The location of various buttons on the panels may be slightly different on your Advanced Interface window. The appearance of the window depends on your computer monitor’s screen resolution.

To adjust the resolution:

1.To use one of the preset resolutions for typical scanned items, click one of the options in the list.

For example, to set the resolution for scanning a business card, select Business Card. That setting is preset to read small print on a typical business card.

2.To set the resolution manually, drag the Resolution slider to the left to decrease the resolution or to the right to increase it.

You can also type a number directly into the resolution setting box, or click the up and down arrows to increase or decrease the setting. The resolution settings on your Xerox DocuMate 510 scanner range from 50 dpi to 600 dpi.
