Setting the Preview Scan Options

and paper size. Additionally, if you are scanning a black and white image,
you select one of the two black and white options.

Setting the Scan Mode

For the preview image, you specify how your source image will be
acquired. Your options include the following:
6-6 Scanning
Colour
Colour images contain 8 bits per pixel for each of the red, green,
and blue channels, for a total of 24 bits per pixel.
If you are scanning from the Desktop Manager, this option is not
available.
Greyscale
Greyscale images contain 8 bits per pixel. If your source image is
in colour but you want the image scanned in black and white,
choose Greyscale to retain the greatest tonal range.
