Scan Mode Adjustment – what it does
B&W Threshold Level in this scan mode is the threshold value. Values between 0-255.
The
default is 151. When scanning at a specific threshold value, all gray tones
below the threshold will be represented as black pixels, and all gray tones
above will be represented as white pixels.
B&W Adaptive
B&W Adaptive Level works like a threshold - the lower the value, the more
of the background is picked up during scanning. Values between 0-255.
Default is 0.
B&W Copy Adaptive
B&W Copy Adaptive Level works like a threshold - the lower the value, the
more of the background is picked up during scanning. Adaptive
enhancement features are automatically applied in this copy mode, with
simultaneous processing on different image aspects. You only have to
adjust the adaptive "Level" to determine the best degree of enhancement
processing for your specific image. Values between 0-255. Default is 0.
Graytone Gamma – Values between 0.1 and 3.0. Default is 1.0. Pixels are
intensified according to a gamma c
urve they are mapped to. A low gamma
value smaller than 1.0 darkens the output while a high gamma value
larger than 1.0 typically lightens the shadow areas and brings out detail.
24-bit Color
Gamma– Values between 0.1 and 3.0. Default is 1.0. Pixels are intensified
according to a gamma curve they are mapped to. A low gamma value
smaller than 1.0 darkens the output while a high gamma value larger than
1.0 typically lightens the shadow areas and brings out detail.
