o Depending on your scanning device, some profiles may not be
valid or useful. For instance, color profiles are useless for
black/white scanning devices, unless they can do gray-scale
scanning.
This table outlines when to use the predefined profiles :
Notes:
o The default profile is Text.
o You can select another profile to become the default profile by
changing the appropriate parameters on the Destination Defaults
page. You reach this page by clicking Destinations and
Destination Defaults >>. After a factory default reset, however,
the Text profile is yet again set to be the default profile.
