Scanned Image Colors Do Not Match Original Colors
Printed colors can never exactly match the colors on your computer monitor because printers and
monitors use different color systems: monitors use RGB (red, green, and blue) and printers typically use
CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black).
Check the color matching and color management capabilities of your computer, display adapter, and the
software you are using to see if they are affecting the palette of colors you see on your screen.
To adjust the colors in your scanned image, adjust these Epson Scan 2 settings (if available) and try
scanning again:
• Make sure you select the correct
Image Type
for your original.
• If the
Image Type
setting is
Auto
,
Color
or
Grayscale
, adjust the
Contrast
setting.
• If the
Image Type
setting is
Black & White
or
Grayscale
, adjust the
Color Enhance
setting.
