Scan Presets

Use Scan Presets to optimize scan settings to match the intended purpose of the scanned documents.
The options are:
• Sharing and Printing is used for sharing files that are going to be viewed onscreen and for
printing most standard business documents. This setting results in a small file size and normal
image quality.
• Archival - Small File Size is best for standard business documents that are stored electronically for
record-keeping purposes. This setting results in the smallest file sizes and normal image quality.
• OCR is best for documents that are going to be processed by Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
software. This setting results in large file sizes and the highest possible image quality.
• High Quality Printing is best for business documents containing detailed graphics and photos.
This setting results in large file sizes and the highest possible image quality.
• Simple Scan is used for faster processing but may result in excessively large file sizes. Using this
setting requires only minimal image processing and compression.
• Touch OK to save the selections and exit.
Resolution
The Resolution affects the appearance of the scanned image. A higher resolution produces a better
quality image. A lower resolution reduces [the] communication time. The options are:
• 72 dpi: Recommended for output displayed on a computer. It produces the smallest file size.
• 100 dpi: Recommended for output that delivers low quality text documents.
• 150 dpi: Recommended for average quality text documents and line art. Does not produce the
best image quality for photos and graphics.
• 200 dpi: Recommended for average quality text documents and line art. Does not produce the
best image quality for photos and graphics.
• 300 dpi: Recommended for high-quality text documents that are to pass through OCR
applications. Also recommended for high-quality line art or medium quality photos and graphics.
This is the default resolution and the best choice in most cases.
• 400 dpi: Recommended for photos and graphics. It produces average image quality for photos
and graphics.
• 600 dpi: Recommended for high-quality photos and graphics. It produces the largest possible
image file size, but delivers the best image quality.
• Touch OK to save the selections and exit.
Quality/File Size
The Quality/File Size settings allow you to choose between scan image quality and file size. These
settings allow you to deliver the highest quality or make smaller files. A small file size delivers slightly
reduced image quality but is better when sharing the file over a network. A larger file size ensures
improved image quality but requires more time when transmitting over the network. The options are:
• Normal Quality creates small files by using advanced compression techniques. Image quality is
acceptable but some quality degradation and character substitution errors may occur with some
originals.
