Enhancing Image Quality

EPSON Scan includes various filters that let you improve the quality of your images.
For photos and film, you can restore the color of faded images, and (for film only) you
can reduce the appearance of graininess and digitally remove specks of dust from your
images. Other filters let you sharpen your images, or eliminate moir

é

patterns when

scanning magazines, newspapers, or similar printed materials.

Using Color Restoration

If you have photos or film images that have become faded, you can use Color
Restoration to correct their colors.

1. Preview your image, then marquee-select the area you want to scan.

2. In Home Mode, click the

Image Adjustments

button, and then select

Color

Restoration

. In Professional Mode, scroll down to the Adjustments section of

the screen and then select

Color Restoration

as shown below:

Note: When using Color Restoration, be sure to select settings appropriate for a color
photograph (for example, do not select Grayscale as the Image Type). In Professional
Mode, you must select Photo (not Document) as the Auto Exposure Type.

Depending on the condition of your photos or film, the colors may not be restored exactly
as you like. If necessary, click the

Image Adjustment button to correct the colors

manually.
