Original
Defines the type of your scan material. To scan printed matter (e.g.,
newspapers, art books, flyers, or magazines), choose Magazine. To scan
graphics, choose Illustration.
Purpose
Defines the ultimate disposition of the scanned image by the email
recipient. For email-viewing purposes alone, choose On-Screen Viewing.
Choose Custom if you want to set the resolution by yourself. It is
recommended that the resolution not be set higher than the scanner's
optical resolution.
Scan Type
Defines the color output for your document. Make sure you choose the
correct image type; it is always best to choose the right image type. For
instance, if you choose True Color to scan a gray-level image, a bigger file
size and longer scanning time results with little improvement to image
quality. Likewise, if your original is text only without images, choose Black
& White to achieve better quality than Gray.
Some scanner models support the JPEG output color format. Take note that
for JPEG image format, the better the image quality, the greater the disk
space required. If your Microtek scanner does not support the JPEG format,
the JPEG selections will not appear under Scan Type.
