VRS User’s Manual
For example, suppose you select 300 DPI in your scanning application and enable the 
first level of Accelerated Scanning in VRS. The image scans at 200 DPI to accelerate 
scanning speed and VRS translates it to 300 DPI to achieve the desired resolution. 
Table 3-6 lists the DPI settings that VRS uses for a typical scanner. Use this table as an 
example of how VRS treats DPI settings defined in a scanning application. 
Note  
When you select the first level of accelerated scanning, the image quality is 
virtually equivalent to non-accelerated scanning. However, higher levels of 
acceleration affect the image quality. Not all scanners increase in speed when you 
select accelerated scanning. If your scanner does not offer lower resolutions than the 
resolution selected in your scanning application, accelerated scanning will have no 
effect.
