Upgrading Your System
To improve your image processing speed and the appearance
of the images on your monitor, you can add the following items
to your system:
◗ Additional memory. Scanned images use much more
memory than text files, so you may need more RAM in
your computer and a larger hard disk.
◗ Accelerator board. You may want to increase your
system’s processing speed; large files take longer to
process than small ones.
◗ Video card. If your scanned images look grainy or have
poor gradient fills on your monitor, you may want to
upgrade your video card. You’ll need 24-bit color (also
called true color or millions of colors) or better for the
highest quality image reproductions.
◗ High resolution monitor. The resolution of your monitor
also affects the quality of the image you see. Consider a
high resolution monitor if you do precise color work, but be
sure you have a compatible video card.
