Image Selection check boxes
Select the check boxes to set the color mode for both the front and the back of your document. For example,
to scan both the front and back of a color document page in color, select the Front Color and Back Color
check boxes. For a black and white scan of the front and a color scan of the back, select Front B&W and
Back Color.
NOTE
• Select more than one image type check box to generate multiple scan results from a single scan. For example,
if you select Front Color and Front Gray, and then scan your document, scan data in both color and gray is
saved.
• If you select Front Auto Detection, you must select Back Auto Detection as a back image type (and the
other way round). These two options work only with each other.
• Back Auto Detection, Back Color, Back Gray and Back B&W is not available when using the scanner
glass.
Image Selection group
The Image Selection group lets you configure detailed settings used when scanning in each color mode.
Select an image type and customize detailed settings. You can apply different settings to each image type.
Binarization / Document Type
This field name changes based on your choice in the Image Selection group.
Binarization (B&W mode only)
Binarization is the process of converting a grayscale or color image to a black and white image. There are
several methods of performing this conversion.
Image Type Description
Color Select Color if your original is in color and you want an exact copy.
Gray Select Gray if your original contains shades of gray.
B&W Select B&W if your original is typed, written in pencil, or written in pen.
Auto Detection Select Auto Detection to automatically detect and scan the front or back of your color document.
If your document is in color, the machine automatically scans the document as a color image. If your
document is not in color, select either Black and White or Gray from the Non-Color Selection
pop-up list. Use this option if your document is multi-page and includes both color and black and
white.
Conversion Methods Description
Dynamic Threshold Select Dynamic Threshold to allow the machine to dynamically evaluate each document
to produce the highest quality image. Select this option to scan documents containing
faint text, shaded background, or color background. If you select Dynamic Threshold:
Threshold, Brightness, and Contrast are not available.
Fixed Processing Select Fixed Processing for black and white and other high-contrast documents. A single
level is set to determine the black and white transition. The threshold is programmable
over the entire density range. If you select Fixed Processing, Contrast is not available.
Halftone 1-5 Select Halftone to view a gray image composed of different-sized dots. In other machines,
this is sometimes called “Grayscale”.
