Digital ICE Technology is a hardware-based dust removal method that is more accurate than the Dust Removal feature. Digital ICE Technology can remove dust or scratch marks without affecting the image composition. However, it takes longer to scan using Digital ICE Technology and also uses more of your system resources. For faster (but less accurate) dust removal, try removing dust marks using the Dust Removal feature. See Dust Removal for details.
For instructions on using Digital ICE Technology to restore damaged images as you scan, see Removing Dust and Scratch Marks from Film and Slides Using Digital ICE Technology.
Note:
You cannot use Dust Removal and Digital ICE Technology at the same time.
You cannot use Digital ICE Technology when scanning printed photos on the document table.
