Output Image Parameters
The Output Image Parameters include the various controls that determine how
your image is scanned and processed.
The Output Image Parameters include:
• Type
• Resolution
• Unit Selection
• Image Dimension controls
• Image Orientation controls
Type (Image Type or Scan Mode)
The Type menu determines what your resulting scan will be. It does not refer to
the original image mode. For instance, if you have a color photo but choose 256
grayscale for the scan mode, the photo is scanned and processed as grayscale.
To use the Type menu, from the Type menu, select your scan mode. Choose the
correct image type, as the wrong choice will simply create bigger files that won't
be of any use to you.
• If you have a grayscale original, do not set image type to RGB Colors (48-bit).
RGB colors are 24-bit, and RGB (48-bit) colors are used for applications
such as Photoshop 5.0.
Note: The options of RGB Colors (48-bit) and Gray Scale (16-bit) are available
only for 36-bit or above scanners, such as ScanMaker X6. Only a few applications
(e.g., Photoshop 5.0) in the market today support these two options.
• Web/Internet color is 256-indexed color image converted with uniform
palette and error diffusion. The sRGB (web color standards) profile is used
for color matching with this image type.
