How To Scan

Choosing a Suitable Resolution

When you choose a high resolution, the number of pixels of the data increases and the scanned image becomes fine in texture. Increasing the resolution causes the data size to increase. Specify a suitable resolution according to the scanning purpose.

This table shows the recommended resolution to use for specific scanning destinations.

Purpose/Destination	Resolution
Sending E-mail	96 to 150 dpi
OCR (Optical Character Recognition)	400 dpi
Printing	300 dpi
Filing	300 dpi
Sending Fax	200 dpi
