1. Resolution
A whole range of resolutions from the TWAIN complaint scanner are available to suit your every
requirement for scanning documents. Scanning resolutions available are from 100x100dpi to
1200x1200dpi (Interpolated). The best resolution for scanning depends on a number of things,
quality of original, type of original and type of output required etc. This is useful if you want to scan
different pages with different resolutions.
For simple text based documents that require scanning resolutions of 200x200 dpi or 300x300dpi

be converted by the OCR (Optical Character Recognition) are best scanned at 300x300dpi and
