Recommended Settings
If you are manually adjusting the settings in the Advanced window, you should
consider using the following settings for optimal scans (a more detailed listing is
available in your electronic EPSON TWAIN Users Guide):
1
If your final output is for on-screen viewing (for example, on a web page), select 72 dpi for your
resolution.
2
If you are enlarging your image, you must manually increase the resolution (dpi) proportionally to
maintain the resolution of your original.
PressWriter for Macintosh does not have a TWAIN scan
function, but you can import a scanned image from another
application using the Object, Import Image function.
