Document quality is the primary factor in obtaining good copies from 
scanned originals.  For most documents, the four  Background

documents, however, require manual adjustments to the settings to  

This section explains the DYNAMIC BACKGROUND REMOVAL feature,

summarizes the procedures for scanning documents of different quality 
types.

example, if the input document is dark, DYNAMIC BACKGROUND
