Recommended Settings
If you are using the scanner buttons and EPSON Smart Panel, the software
automatically selects the best settings for your scan. If you want to scan in
Manual mode and select settings yourself, see your Scanner Basics guide for
instructions. For the best scans, you need to select a resolution setting (dpi)
that balances quality with file size. The optimum resolution also depends
on how you plan to use your scanned image.
If you are scanning an image to view on the Web, select a resolution of
72 to 96 dpi.
If you are sending the image by e-mail, select a resolution of
96 to 150 dpi.
If you are going to print your scanned image, you need to scan at a higher
resolution. Here are some recommended resolution settings:
Image type
Photograph or magazine
Small photograph to be enlarged
Newspaper (text only), Text for OCR, Text with images
Line art
35 mm film (negative) or 35 mm slide (positive)
