If you still have trouble
Improving image quality
Recommended settings
Other Perfect Page settings

If you have tried the other suggestions in this section and still have
trouble, then check the scanner:
• See "Cleaning procedures" on page 40 for how to clean the scanner.
Roller cleanliness and wear affect how well pages feed.
• See "Replacement procedures" on page 46 to be sure that feed
rollers, separation rollers, and pre-separation pad are installed
correctly.
• See "Problem solving" on page 53 for more suggestions.
NOTE: Certain options you may select, such as feeding documents with
more care or improved output stacking, will slow scanning
throughput.
Your scanner is able to produce images optimized for your purpose.
Here are some of the commonly used enhancements. These and more
features are described in the Help system for your driver (TWAIN or
ISIS). These features are set up through the driver, so your Kodak
scanning application may be able to use them in programmed scanning
profiles or settings.
Black and White Perfect Page and Color Perfect Page shortcuts in your
driver provide our recommended settings for document scanning.
The following settings can improve the appearance of your images or
documents:
1. Auto blank page removal: Images with little or no data can be
automatically removed from output, saving manual editing and
storage.
2. Hole fill: Black holes from paper punches can be changed to the
background color of the image.
3. Background color smoothing: In color images, uneven image
background color can be changed to a more uniform background,
for a cleaner looking image.
4. Noise reduction (despeckle): Black and white images may have
noise (black specks) because of uneven paper thickness. Noise
reduction options can make the image look cleaner. They also have
some risk of removing information from the image, so if automated
data recognition is your primary purpose, noise reduction may not
be a good choice.
5. Image border: To remove all background at the image border, turn
on edge fill (either automatic or automatic with tears).
6. Color dropout: Unneeded form data, in one or multiple colors, can
be eliminated from the image.
