Scanner Control

Power-Saving

An energy saving feature is built into recent scanners models, in which the

scanning lamp switches to power-saving mode when the scanner remains idle

for a defined period of time. The scanner reverts to full power mode as soon as

the

Preview, Scan, Scan to, Copy, or E-mail button is executed. Aside from

saving power, the feature also helps extend the service life of the lamp and

prevents caking and deformation of your film original resulting from long

exposure to lamp heat.

Each scanner model has its own default idle time to induce the scanning lamp

into power-saving mode and factory set time for warm-up, revert to full power,

and start scanning operation. You may define your own idle time or disable the

feature altogether by clicking on the Scanner icon from the Title bar in Standard

Mode or from the Scanner menu of the Menu bar in Advanced Mode. Then

from the resulting menu, choose

Scanner Control. The following Scanner

Control dialog box will then display to allow you to change the default settings.

NOTENOTE If your scanner does not support the 'Power-Saving'

and 'Compression' features, "Scanner Control" will not display

from the menu.

If only 'Power-Saving' is supported ('Compression' not

supported), "Compression" is grayed out (disabled) from the

dialog box. Likewise, if "Compression" is enabled, but only either

"Lossless" or "Lossy" compression mode is supported, only the

supported mode is enabled. The non-supported mode is grayed

out.

Click Scanner icon for

Standard mode (top), or

Scanner menu for

Advanced mode (bottom),

then choose Scanner

Control. The energy

saving dialog box will then

appear
