To improve your image processing speed and the appearance of the
images on your monitor, you can add the following items to your system:
Additional memory.
Scanned images use much more memory than
text files, so you may need more RAM in your computer and a larger
hard disk.
Processor.
You may want to increase your system’s processing
speed; large files take longer to process than small ones.
Video card.
For accurate previews on your monitor, use a 16-bit or
24-bit color video card.
High resolution monitor.
The resolution of your monitor also affects
the quality of the image you see. Consider a high resolution monitor if
you do precise color work, but be sure you have a compatible video
card.
Compression software.
Many different programs are available to
make image files smaller for storage or transmission. Compression
software can compress images and restore them to their original size,
but use of compression software may affect the quality of your scans.
