Here are some recommended settings for different types of
scans.
* If the final output is for on-screen viewing (for example, on a
web page), select 72 dpi for your resolution.
** Automatically selects Text Enhancement Technology (TET) as
your B/W option.
*** If you are enlarging your image, you must manually increase the
resolution (dpi) proportionally to maintain the resolution of your
original.
****If you are scanning between 1201 and 2400 dpi, EPSON
recommends you limit your scan area to 4
×
11.7 inches to
maintain true hardware resolution. Above 2400 dpi, you will be using
software interpolation to increase the resolution.
