Reflecta ProScan 10T - Set Scan Settings; Resolution and Color Depth

ENGLISH
STEP 4 – Set Scan Settings
a. Resolution
The default scanning resolution is 1000dpi, additional resolution options
are listed below.
Notice:
Higher scanning resolutions result in greater scanning time and hard disk
space requirements.
b. Color Depth
Choose between 8 and 16bit. A higher color depth setting will result in
a larger range of colors in the final scanned image.
The Film Scanner color depth is 48 bit true color. The scanning software has the
capability of selecting 8 bit color mode or 16 bit color mode when scanning,
This will produce 24 or 48 bit color images, 8 bits or 16 bits per Red, Green and
Blue color channels.
Example:
8 bit mode = 8 Red, 8 Green, and 8 Blue for a total of 24 bit color
16 bit mode = 16 Red, 16 Green, and 16 Blue for a total of 48 bit color
NOTE: Make sure there is enough space available
on the computer when changing the Scanning
Resolution. A high scanning resolution results in
large files that may prove difficult to save.
