Scanning

Resolution 2
You can choose a scanning resolution from the Resolution drop-down list. Higher resolutions take more
memory and transfer time, but produce a finer scanned image. The following table shows the resolutions you
can choose and the available colors.
Scan Type 2
 Black & White
Use for text or line art.
 Gray (Error Diffusion)
Use for photographic images or graphics. (Error Diffusion is a method for creating simulated gray images
without using true gray dots. Black dots are put in a specific pattern to give the appearance of gray.)
 True Gray
Use for photographic images or graphics. This mode is more exact because it uses up to 256 shades of
gray.
 256 Color
Uses up to 256 colors to scan the image.
 24 bit Color
Uses up to 16.8 million colors to scan the image.
Although using 24 bit Color creates an image with the most accurate color, the image file will be about
three times larger than a file created with 256 Color. It requires the most memory and has the longest
transfer time.
Reduce Noise 2
You can reduce noise of scanned images. When noise appears in scanned images or prints of the scanned
image, this setting can reduce the noise.
