APPENDIX A
Contrast
The contrast setting is adjustable only when you have selected one of
the gray scale settings, but it is not available when Black & White is
selected as the gray Scale.
Increasing the contrast level (by dragging the slidebar to the right)
emphasizes dark and light areas of the Image, while decreasing the
contrast level (by dragging the slidebar to the left) ravels more detail
in gray areas. Instead of using the slidebar, you can type a value in
the box to set the contrast.

When scanning photographs or other images for use in a word
processor or other graphics application, you should try different
settings for the contrast, mode and resolution to see which settings
best suit your needs.
