Limitations of Vertical Banding Improvement feature in Epson Scan
This bulletin was created to inform you about the features and limitations of Vertical Banding
Improvement, implemented in Epson Scan for the Perfection V300 Photo.
Description:
Vertical Banding Improvement (VBI) is a driver setting you can use for correcting vertical
banding issues that can occur when scanning certain metallic coated materials or documents.
Vertical Banding Improvement can only be used on reflective media—film is not supported.
When using the Vertical Banding Improvement, the maximum allowed resolution is 1200dpi.
The VBI setting is located in the "Configuration" menu under the "Other" settings tab in the
Epson Scan User Interface as shown below.
By default, Vertical Banding Improvement is disabled. Once the box is checked, the VBI setting
will remain enabled even after the Epson Scan driver has been closed. To turn off this setting,
you must uncheck the box.
