Image Selection check boxes
Select the check boxes to customize the scan type. The Image Selection check box(es) are used to select
the color mode with which the front or back of your document will be scanned. 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.
• 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 Color Detection, you must select Back Auto Color Detection as a back image
type, and vice versa. These two options work only with each other.
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 detail settings. You can apply different settings to each image type.
Binarization / Document Type / Non-Color Selection
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 into 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 Color Detection Select Auto Color Detection to automatically detect and scan the front or back of your color
document. If your document is in color, the scanner will automatically scan the document as
a color image. If your document is not in color, choose either Black and White or Gray from
the Non-Color Selection drop-down 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 scanner 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”.
