To set your resolution: Enter a resolution setting in the Resolution edit box, then press Enter. If the value you enter is too low or too high, the minimum or maximum resolution value is entered for you instead. According to the image type you select, default resolution is displayed. When you specify the resolution you need, this value is recorded for subsequent use. Note: In setting resolution, choose the setting that best matches your output device. Remember that the higher the resolution, the larger the resulting file will be and the longer it will take to output. 52 Microtek ScanWizard Pro for Windows Unit selection The unit of measurement for resolution is in ppi (pixel per inch) or lpi (lines per inch). Lpi settings are dimmed if the ruler unit is in pixels, and vice versa for ppi. To select your option: · Choose lpi (1x) if you know precisely the resolution you need for your image. Or, in case of Stochastic halftone and contone (continuous tone) printing. · Choose lpi (1. 5x) to produce resolution that is one and one-half times the screen frequency. · Choose lpi (2x) to produce resolution that is two times the screen frequency. Normally used on the screen equal to or less than 133 lpi halftone printing. During scanning, ScanWizard Pro first converts the unit into ppi before sending image data to the scanner. Quality Factor represents multiplication factor for converting lpi to ppi. For example, an 85 lpi printing is 127 ppi multiplying quality factor 1. 5; or 170 ppi multiplying quality factor 2. The Custom setting allows you to define values from 1 to 4, decimal value is accepted, such as 1. 33. Reference: The Settings Window 53 Image Dimension controls These controls allow you to adjust the various factors that affect the image, including the width and height of your image when it is first scanned (Scan Frame), the scaling factor, and the dimensions of the image in final output. Scan Frame (input) x Scaling = output This mathematical formula indicates the relation of the input dimensions to scaling and how these factors affect image dimensions when the image is scanned. The Input-Output dimensions consist of four edit boxes: Scan Frame width, Scan Frame height, output width, and output height. These edit boxes are linked to the use of Fixed Scan Frame, and the boxes may or may not be edited depending on whether the Fixed Output Sized is checked or not. Scan Frame Use the Scan Frame dimensions to specify your scan frame; or drag on the scan frame to whatever size you want, and the dimensions will be reflected in the Scan Frame width and height boxes. The Scan Frame dimensions can be changed only if the Fixed Scan Frame is unchecked, and this is evident because only the Scan Frame dimensions are active (not grayed out). Output The output dimensions determine the width and height of your image when output to a device such as a monitor or printer. The output dimensions can be changed only if the Fixed Output Size is unchecked. The output dimensions are grayed out, indicating that they cannot be edited in this situation. The output boxes, however, will respond to any changes in the Scan Frame boxes (and scaling). 54 Microtek ScanWizard Pro for Windows Scaling The Scaling lets you create large or small images so that the images don't have to be resized subsequently, which is usually done in your image-editing software.

A Light GCR means a small percentage of the possible gray component is replaced with black.
