DIGITAL ICE Photo Print Technology
DIGITAL ICE Photo Print Technology is an advanced technology that reconstructs
damaged photos during the scanning process, transforming the traditional photo
restoration process into one that is automatic, fast, and economical. Unlike software-
only correction, DIGITAL ICE Photo Print Technology is built into your ScanMaker
i900, providing a seamless reconstruction process that brings damaged photos back
to near-original condition.

The Reconstruction Process
DIGITAL ICE Photo Print Technology creates a defect map to identify the precise
locations of physical defects or visual “noise” on the print being scanned. The
scanner's differential shadowing technology and proprietary software algorithms then
quickly and automatically eliminate the unwanted defects.

In addition, Microtek has developed a unique Image Registration Technology that is
built into your scanner to ensure precise color registration and superior image quality.
Because two scanning passes and two lamps are required in the use of DIGITAL ICE
Photo Print Technology, precise registration is crucial in order to produce a perfectly
aligned image from the twin scanning passes. Microtek's Image Registration
Technology ensures accurate movement of the scanner mechanism, so that the
mechanical steps during the scanning process are registered with the ultra-fine
precision needed for superior, accurate scans.

Using Applicable Scan Materials
DIGITAL ICE Photo Print Technology is used in the ScanMaker i900 to reconstruct
damaged photos. It is not designed to be used for printed materials from newspapers
and magazines, or printouts from inkjet/laser printers.
