While most scan settings are controlled by the TWAIN software, you can indicate a few additional parameters in the Scan Settings dialog to expedite your imaging process.

The Scan Settings Dialog

 

Transfer Mode

The transfer mode you choose will depend on the type of scanner you have and the driver installed. There are three modes:

  • Memory Transfer
  • Native and
  • File Transfer

Please contact your scanner support representative if you are not sure which mode to choose.

 

Compression

If you select Memory Transfer in the Transfer Mode setting, you also have five compression options from which to choose:

  • CCITT Group 4
  • CCITT Group 3 2D
  • CCITT Group 3 EOL
  • CCITT Group 3 and
  • No Compression

 

 

Please note that Compression options will not appear if you have selected Native or File Transfer as your Transfer Mode.

 

Force Resolution

Some scanners do not write the correct TIFF or JPG tag to the generated file.  You can over-ride the resolution you have set in your TWAIN settings here. The default is to use the TWAIN settings. The other values are in dots per inch (DPI), and they are 200, 300, 400, and 600.

 

JPEG Quality

Please set here your default JPG compression.
