Most of the menu options are considered advanced features. We strongly suggest
that you first become familiar with scanning and using the settings in the TWAIN
window before attempting to use any of the following features. Many of these
advanced features will also be available to you in your image-editing software after
you scan.

Monitor gamma defines how the colors in an image will be displayed on your
monitor (not the color data in the image itself). The monitor gamma setting allows you
to change the gamma values for your monitor.
The monitor gamma only affects the prescanned image in the prescan area.
This is because image-editing applications have their own monitor gamma settings.
The settings defined here should be exactly the same as the settings in the image-
editing application you will use to view and edit the scanned image.
To correctly adjust the monitor gamma, you must first have your computer and
working environment stable. This includes the lighting in the room, and making sure
your monitor brightness, contrast and colors are properly adjusted. Next, drag the
slider bars to alter the monitor gamma. When finished, click OK to exit.
