Scanning grayscale images

The descriptions below are for scanning grayscale images only.

Resolution or dots per inch (dpi)

 indicates the scanning resolution,

which largely determines the quality of the scanned image. The greater
the resolution, the better the reproduction. However, scanning at a
higher resolution also increases scanning time and file size.

Choose a resolution value from the drop down list. The default is 200
dpi. Available resolutions are: 75, 100, 150, 200, 240, 300, 400 or 600.

Color Tables

 the selection of a color table effects how the scanner

reproduces the color of a scanned document. Color Tables are look-up
tables that store color descriptions which can be used for gamma
correction of images being transferred between different equipment
(i.e., scanners, printers, monitors, etc.). The selection of a color table
effects how the scanner reproduces the color of a scanned document.
You can choose from the three Kodak default color tables: Pictures,
Text
and Text with Pictures, or if you have created your own custom
color tables using the Brightness and Contrast Control, these tables will
also be available. For more information on the Brightness and Contrast
Control, see the Reference Guide, A-61506.

Convert Color to Grayscale

 enable this option when you want the

captured image to be 8-bit grayscale instead of 24-bit color.
