Brightness
Adjust the setting (-50 to 50) to get the best image. The default value is 0, representing an average.
You can set the Brightness level by dragging the slide bar to the right or left to lighten or darken the image.
You can also enter a value in the box to set the level.
If the scanned image is too light, set a lower Brightness level and scan the document again. If the image is
too dark, set a higher Brightness level and scan the document again.
Note
The Brightness setting is only available when Black & White, Grey or True Grey is chosen.
Contrast
You can increase or decrease the contrast level by moving the slide bar to the left or right. An increase
emphasizes dark and light areas of the image, while a decrease reveals more detail in grey areas. You can
also enter a value in the box to set the Contrast.

The Contrast setting is only available when Grey or True Grey is chosen.
