DocuMate 3115User’s Guide94The Options in the TWAIN Interface• Mode—Select a scanning mode:Black&White to scan in black and white. For example, letters and memos are usually scanned inblack and white.Grayscale to scan items such as documents containing drawings or black and white photographs.Color to scan color photographs and other color items. Color scans have the largest file size.• Resolution—Drag the slider to the right or left to adjust the dots per inch (dpi) of the resolution.The higher the dpi setting, the sharper and clearer the scanned image. However, higher dpisettings take longer to scan and produce larger files for the scanned images.• Brightness—Sometimes an image is scanned with the brightness and contrast set too light or toodark. For example, a note written with a light pencil may need to be scanned darker to improvelegibility. Increasing or decreasing the brightness makes the scanned image lighter or darker.• Contrast—The difference between the lighter and darker portions of the image. Increasing thecontrast emphasizes the difference between the lighter and darker portions, decreasing thecontrast de-emphasizes that difference.• Deskew—Select this option to let the scanner automatically determine if a page is skewed, thenstraighten its image. If the page is fed through at too great of an angle, the image may notstraighten correctly. In that case, re-scan the page using the paper guides to feed the paper instraight.• Duplex—Scan both sides of the page. If this option is not selected, the scanner will scan the face-down side of the page only.• Color Filter—Color filter is the ability of your scanner to automatically remove a color from ascanned image. For example, if you are scanning a letter with a red watermark, you can choose tofilter out the red so the scanned letter just shows the text and not the red watermark. Color filterapplies to Black & White or Grayscale scanning modes.• AutoCrop to original—Select this option to let the scanner automatically determine the size ofthe item being scanned.Always use the paper guides on the scanner so the page is not skewed. Skewed pages may notcrop properly.• Reduce Moiré Patterns—Moiré patterns are wavy, rippled lines that sometimes appear on thescanned images of photographs or illustrations, particularly newspaper and magazineillustrations. Selecting Reduce Moiré Patterns will limit or eliminate moiré patterns in the scannedimage. This option is only available at lower resolutions.
