Tips on Using the Scanner
This section provides you with some tips and further information
for using the scanner.
Note: Use these guidelines and your scanner software to obtain
better results when scanning and reproducing images.
Scanning Line Art and Characters
If the line art contains many straight lines, adjust the document
position so that lines are aligned with the horizontal scan or vertical
scan directions. If it is placed askew, the straight lines will have
jagged edges.
Adjusting for Different Document Types
Focusing
For the best focus, place the document flat against the document
table. As the distance from the document table increases, the focus is
lost and the image is blurred or darkened.
Document surface
For better scanning results, make sure the document surface is
smooth. If there is a pasted-up area, colors may blur at the edge of
this area. Textured and embossed surfaces may produce blurred
images because light from the scanner lamps is not evenly reflected
on them.
