• Simple Scan: This setting is best used for faster processing but may result in excessively large file sizes. Use
this setting to apply the minimal amount of image processing and compression.
Advanced Settings
The options for Advanced Settings are shown on the second tab of the selected scan method; these options
include the following:

The Image Options include:
• Lighten/Darken: This option provides manual control to adjust the lightness or darkness of the scanned
images. Scroll down to darken the scanned image of light originals such as pencil images. Scroll up to lighten
the scanned image of dark originals such as half tones or originals with colored backgrounds.
• Sharpness: This option controls the balance between sharp text and moiré (patterns within the image).
Move the slider control down (Soften) to produce an image with a smooth, uniform appearance (ideally
suited for photographic scanned images). Move the slider control up (Sharpen) to produce an image with
better quality text or line art.

The Image Enhancement options include:
• Background Suppression: This option prevents reproduction of unwanted shading from originals where the
opposite side printing shows through (translucent).
Off: This is the default setting. With background suppression off, originals are scanned without filtering the
document backgrounds.
Auto Suppression: This option automatically reduces or eliminates any background on the output which
may be caused by colored paper or newspaper originals. For example, when Color Scanning is set to Black
& White, the background of a document printed on colored paper, such as newspaper, is suppressed. When
Color Scanning is set to Color, the background of a document printed on white-color paper is suppressed.
• Contrast: This option controls the difference between the image densities within the scanned image. Lower
contrast settings reproduce more detail in light and dark areas of the original. Higher contrast settings
produce vivid blacks and whites for sharper text and lines, but produce less detail in pictures.

Choose one of four resolution settings:
• 200 dpi (dots per inch): This setting produces normal output quality and a small file size. Use this setting for
office documents and photos.
• 300 dpi: This setting produces a higher output quality and larger file size. Use this setting for sharper
scanning of office documents and photos.
• 400 dpi: This setting produces medium output quality and the largest file size. Use this setting for high
quality printing; this setting is suitable for fine lines and small fonts that have been enlarged and for
documents with low image definition.
• 600 dpi: This setting produces maximum output quality and the largest file size. Use this setting for high
quality printing; this setting is suitable for fine lines and small fonts that have been enlarged and for
documents with low image definition.
