Print Quality Issues - Xante FilmMaker 4 User Manual

SR = the Scan resolution
Image Size Ratio = printed image size/original image size
For example, for a line screen of 95, set the scanner resolution 190 dpi (95 x 2).
To print the same image at 75% of original size, set the scanner resolution to
142 dpi (95 x 2 x .75).
Scanning the image at a lower than optimum resolution results in less
detail. Scanning at a higher resolution increases file size and processing
time, and it may only slightly increase the amount of detail.
