Brother ADS-3100 High-Speed Desktop Color Scanner for Home & Small Offices - Manual (Page 83)

• Auto
Automatically detects whether the document uses color and generates a scanned image of it. For
documents that mix color and black and white pages, color pages will be scanned in Color mode, while
black and white pages will be scanned in
Black & White mode.
• Black & White
Use for text or line art images.
• Gray (Error Diffusion)
Use for photographic images or graphics. (Error Diffusion is a method for creating simulated grayscale
images without using true gray dots. Black dots are put in a specific pattern to give a gray
appearance.)
• True Gray
Use for photographic images or graphics. This mode is more accurate because it uses up to 256
shades of gray.
• 24bit Color
Use to create an image with the most accurate color reproduction. This mode uses up to 16.8 million
colors to scan the image, but it requires the most memory and has the longest transfer time.
