Your PaperPort OneTouch scanner is initially set to scan from the
PaperPort software with the setting Color Photo—Faster. To scan at a
higher resolution, select Color Photo—Better Quality.
▼
NOTE: Scanning at a higher resolution creates a larger file size and
takes longer to scan. To minimize the file size and the time required
to get a better quality scan, select just the area of the item that you
want to scan. For more information about selecting the area of an
item, see “Selecting the Area of the Item You Want to Scan” on
page 27.
To scan in color:
1. Click the Twain icon on the Command Bar, or choose Acquire
from the
File
menu.
The PaperPort Scan Manager dialog box appears.
2. Click Color Photo—Faster or Color Photo—Better Quality.
You can also use these settings for any other color items such as
color pages from articles.
3. Scan the item in the normal manner.

Sometimes an item is scanned with the brightness and contrast set to be
too light or too dark. For example, a note written with a light pencil
may need to be scanned darker to improve legibility.
You can adjust the brightness and contrast at which grayscale and color
items are scanned. You can also adjust the brightness for black-and-
white items. If an item is currently displayed in the preview area, the
changes you make using the Brightness and Contrast control bars are
reflected in the preview item.
