Changing the Descreen Feature
The Descreen option helps eliminate the patterns that can appear
when you scan printed images found in magazines, brochures,
catalogues, etc. (half-tone images). This is accomplished by
changing the number of lines that appear in every inch (lines per
inch) of the scanned image.
The Descreen feature is unavailable when you have chosen the B/W
Document, Fax or OCR resolution settings.

grain pattern commonly found in newspaper images.
