4.2.2 Other Image Options

Binarization

This is the process of converting a grayscale or color image to a bi-tonal image. There are several different methods of performing this conversion. Two of the options are Dynamic Threshold and Fixed Processing.

Dynamic Threshold: Selecting Dynamic Threshold allows the scanner to dynamically evaluate each document to determine the optimal threshold value to produce the highest quality image. This is used to scan mixed document containing faint text, shaded background, or color background with a single setting. If Dynamic Threshold is selected, Threshold, Brightness, and Contrast are not available.

Fixed Processing: Used for black-and-white and other high contrast documents. A single level is set to determine the black-and-white transition. The threshold is programmable over the entire density range. Fixed Processing sets Contrast to 0. If Fixed Processing is selected, Contrast is not available.

Threshold

Used to convert a grayscale image to a bi-tonal image. The value ranges from 0 to 255. A low threshold value produces a lighter image, and can be used to subdue backgrounds and subtle, unneeded information. A high threshold value produces a darker image, and can be used to help pick up faint images.

Adjust the threshold setting by dragging the Threshold sliding bar to the left or right to achieve the desired threshold setting.

200 dpi, Threshold:80, Brightness: 0

200 dpi, Threshold:170, Brightness: 0

Brightness

Adjusts the lightness or darkness of an image. The higher the value, the brighter the image. Drag the slider to the right or left to increase or decrease the brightness. The range is from -100 to +100 .

Contrast

Adjusts the range between the darkest and the lightest shades in the image. The higher the contrast, the bigger the different grayscale. Drag the slider to the right or left to increase or decrease the contrast. The range is from -100 to +100.

Brightness: -50

Brightness: 0 (Normal)

Brightness: +50

Contrast: -50

Contrast: 0 (Normal)

Contrast: +50

Resolution

A good control of the resolution results a good detail of an image that scans. The resolution is measured by dots per inch (dpi). Normally, the greater the dpi number, the higher the resolution and the image file size. Be aware that greater resolution takes more time to scan, and more disk space for the scanning image. For your information, an A4 size color image scanned at 300 dpi at True Color mode consumes approximately 25 MB of disk space. A higher resolution (usually means over 600 dpi) is only recommended when you need to scan a small area at True Color mode.

Choose a resolution value from the drop down list. The default value is 200 dpi. Available resolutions are 75, 100, 150, 200,300, 400 and 600. Or you may choose your desired value by clicking the box in the right side of the drop down list and press the arrow key to select your desired value and then click the Add button to include it in the drop down list.

Resolution: 75 dpi

Resolution: 150 dpi

Invert

Reverses the brightness and the colors in the image. The default setting is Black on a White background. Reverse mode is White on a Black background. For color images, each pixel will be changed into its complementary color at the command of Invert.

4.3 The Compression Tab

The Compression tab allows you to compress your scanned image and choose the level of compression. Bi-tonal images are normally compressed using CCITT standard called Group 4 (G4). Color and grayscale images are often compressed using JPEG technology. Move the JPEG Quality slider to the right or left to increase or decrease the level of compression. Note the greater the compression level, the lower image quality. Default is 50% .

Note that the compression depends on your image editing application. If your image editing application does not support the type of compression format, then either a warning message will appear or the image quality of the compressed file will not be acceptable.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Editor Group). This group developed and lent their name to a file compression standard for color and grayscale images that is widely used by scanners, and software applications. On Microsoft Windows-based systems, a file with the extension .jpg has normally been compressed using this standard.

For scanning color or gray images, the following compressions are available:

None
JPEG

For scanning B&W images, the following compressions are available:

None
G4

4.4 The Color Dropout Tab

4.4.1 Color Dropout Selection

Color Dropout tab allows you to drop either of the red, blue, or green color in your scanned image. If your image contains red color watermark or background, choose the R (Red) channel then any red watermark or background will be removed. This feature is used to sharpen your text when using OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software.

Note that this function supports only black & white and gray images. Therefore, be sure to choose any black & white or gray image type while applying this function.

The Color Dropout dialog box

4.4.2 Other Color Dropout Options

Advanced Processing provides two options that can adjust your scanned image in the best optimal result.

Filter This value is used to determine the color Threshold which will be dropped out. A lower value will drop more of the selected color out, while a higher value will leave more of the selected color in.

Background The pixel which is higher than the background value will be adjusted to the lightest point. Adjust the value for both the Filter Threshold and Background Level to produce the best optimal result.

Example, slightly adjusting the background value makes your text more clear.

4.5.3 Relative to Document

Relative to Document: (used for batches of same-sized documents)

This option allows you to crop different areas on your documents and deliver these images in B&W, Gray, or Color separately. For example, there are applications which require you to store the entire document in B&W and a part of the document in color to save storage space. This is useful for documents where a photograph, or signature appears in a consistent area on the document such as resumes, and so on.

The following procedure describes how to reproduce the entire document in B&W and a portion of document (picture) in color.

1. On the Paper tab, choose "Relative to Document" or "Fixed to Transport" from the Cropping option.
2. Choose your scan size from the Scan Area option. The selected scan size will be displayed in a red rectangular box. This is also the scan size of your entire document. (For example, ISO B5. If you have not chosen a scan area and leave the selection as None, then the default area will be the scanner's maximum.)

1. Click the Preview tab to display the Preview window. A black rectangular box appears to indicate the max. scan size your have just selected.

1. Click the Preview button to view the entire image in low resolution to correctly crop your relative scan area.

1. Select image type from the Image Selection box. The selected image will appear in highlighted color. (For example, Front Color)
2. Place your cursor on the Preview window and click your left mouse button. A cross sign will appear as illustrated. Create your relative scan size diagonally by dragging the left mouse button to your preferable size. The selected area will appear in a red box as illustrated.

In 1962, he was married to Robert Quelley, who is the first person to be born in Britain. He took up a master's course in a career strong enough to make a difference in his life. The role of the inventors and refinements of modern physics as well as the makers' shops of Abstracts, Daxton, were all important.

Energy Saving Control	Check the Enable Energy Saver box and move the slider to the right to set the amount of time to start the energy saver after your last action. The range is from 1 to 240 minutes. The default is 15 minutes.
Batch Scan Setting	·Batch Scan To increase the scanning speed, the scanner first scans a few pages of your document and then sends these scanning data to the application. Therefore, during scanning, the numbers of pages been scanned on the scanner is somehow different with the numbers of pages displayed on your computer screen. Choose this mode if you wish to complete your scanning task at the fastest speed. ·Page Scan If you choose Page Scan, during scanning, the scanner will first scan only one page of your document and then send the scanned data to the application and then scan the next page and send the next data to the application, and so on. Therefore, in this mode, the scanning speed is slower yet this helps to keep the same scanning progress between the scanner and your computer screen.
Barcode Detection	Check this option to enable detecting and recognizing barcode in your document. After the detecting process, an avbarcode.ini file will be generated and stored in your system drive, for example, Windows\avbarcode.ini. Note: The availability of this feature varies based on type of scanner.
Show Scanning Progress	Check and the scanning progress bar will be shown during scanning.

5. Using the Buttons

The following picture shows the 3 buttons on the scanner.

5.1 Installing Button Manager

To use the buttons on the scanner, you need to install the Button Manager. To ensure the Button Manager work properly, please FIRST install Button Manager before installing the scanner driver.

Installing the Button Manager is easy. Insert the supplied CD to your CD-ROM drive and follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation of the Button Manager.

Button Manager provides you an easy way to scan your document and then link the scanned image to your designated software application.

2. The Button Panel is displayed in the Windows System Tray at the bottom right corner of your computer screen.

1. The Button Panel shows the first five scanning buttons. Right-click the button (function) you wish to check. The Button Properties window appears.

The default setting is indicated in highlighted color. If you wish to change the setting, use this window to reset the setting for the file format, destination application, or other scan settings. See "Configuring the Button" in the subsequent section to reset the settings.

1. Click the OK button to leave the window.

5.3 Scanning From One Touch of the Buttons

1. Adjust the paper guide for the width of paper and load the document with their tops into the automatic document feeder.
2. Check the number on the LED screen to ensure if you are selecting the proper scan settings and destination application. (For example, if you want to scan with button #4, which open Microsoft Paint and display the scanned image in the main window of Microsoft Paint, the LED screen should show 4).
3. Press the Scan button on scanner.
4. After the scanning is finished, the Microsoft Paint software will be launched and the scanned image appears in the main window of Microsoft Paint as below.

7. Troubleshooting

If you have problems with the operation of your scanner, please check the following troubleshooting hints.

7.1 Frequently asked Questions

Question: When the scanner is powered on, it makes noises and won't stand ready.

Answer: There are two possibilities:

1) You might fail to push the scanner shipping lock to its "use" position. If this is the case, pull the scanner status switch to its "use" position first.
2) The scanner is not placed on an even, flat desktop surface. This may cause the scanner to malfunction.

Question: The scanner is powered on, but the lamp does not light up.

Answer: The lamp is probably out of order. Contact your local dealer or distributor to replace the lamp. For your information, the average life time of the lamp is about 15,000 hours and the operating temperature for the scanner is between 10^(50^) and 40^(104^) .

Question: While scanning, the scanner often makes noises, or it scans back and forth.

Answer: Usually this means the memory of your computer is not enough or the speed of your CPU too slow. Please try to increase your memory to at least 32M or replace your CPU with Pentium or later.

Question: Why is it that the scanned image always comes out to be too dark?

Answer: 1) Modify the Gamma setting to 1.8 2.2 for your monitor and, when printing, set the Gamma setting to 2.2 for your printer. 2) Adjust the Brightness setting from the TWAIN user interface to get a brighter image.

Question: The scanner works well except for the line art image. The lines in the image seem to be much thicker than the original one.

Answer: Increase the Brightness or adjust the Threshold setting to improve line art image.

Question: When I choose optical resolution to be 650 dpi, the "auto crop" and "deskew" functions will be disabled.

Answer: Since to perform auto crop and despew consumes great deal of system memory, it is suggested if you wish to perform "auto crop" and "deskew"

functions, please choose your optical resolution to be smaller than 600 dpi to prevent an error message.
