How To
Scan Images for Viewing on Computer Screen
Scan images for viewing in the Full Auto Mode
Scan images for viewing in the Home Mode
Scan images for viewing in the Professional Mode
When you want to view scanned images on the computer screen, set the output resolution to 96 dpi. The monitor can reproduce images only up to 96 dpi. Scanning at a high resolution is counterproductive. The low resolution image files are smaller and easy to handle. Therefore, use low resolution to scan images for use on the Internet or in e-mail.
 |
Note:
|
 | |
Low resolution is not recommended if scanned images sent through e-mail are intended for printing. In this case, the output resolution is too low for printing. See Scan Images for Printing.
