Ripple Patterns Appear In An Image; Scanned Image Edges Are Cropped; Characters Are Not Recognized During Conversion To Editable Text (Ocr) - Epson DS-60000 User Manual

Ripple Patterns Appear in an Image

You may see a ripple pattern (called a moiré) in scanned images of printed documents. This is caused
by interference from differing pitches in the scanner's screen and your original's halftone screen. To
reduce this effect, adjust these Epson Scan 2 settings (if available) and try scanning again:
• Select the Descreening setting.
• Select a lower Resolution setting.

Scanned Image Edges are Cropped

If the edges of a scanned image are cropped, make sure your original is placed correctly for scanning. If
necessary, move your original away from the edges of the scanner glass slightly.

• Select the correct Image Type setting.
• Select or adjust the Text Enhancement setting.
• If the Image Type is set to Black & White, adjust the Threshold setting.
• Set the Image Type to Grayscale.
• Set the scanning resolution between 200 and 600 dpi.

• If you are using OCR software, check the manual for any additional adjustments.
