Using EPSON Scan

EPSON Scan provides three scanning modes to give you progressive levels of control
over your scanned image:
Home Mode: Makes scanning quick and easy. It includes a simple interface,
■
automatic image adjustments, and preset configurations for various types of scans.
Office Mode: Includes a basic interface with practical scan settings designed for
■
documents. Choose either this mode or Professional Mode to scan multi-page
documents on the optional automatic document feeder (see page 45). You cannot
use this mode to scan film or slides, and it is not recommended for photos.
Professional Mode: Lets you manually configure advanced image settings,

including the histogram setting, tone, color depth, balance, saturation, brightness,
and contrast.
