Scanning Color Images

If the colors in your scanned image dont match those in your original document, try experimenting with the Unsharp Mask setting. Click the Destination button on the EPSON TWAIN Pro main window to display the Destination window, and then select or deselect Unsharp Mask. To reproduce the most accurate colors, use MonacoEZcolor to create color profiles for your scanner, printer, and monitor (MonacoEZcolor is not available with the Special Edition model of the scanner). Then use an ICC-compliant color management application like Adobe Photoshop 5.0 to apply the profiles. (Make sure to turn off color management in your scanner software.)

Using a Network Scanner

Network scanning involves the following steps: t The scanner server must be turned on and running EPSON Scan Server (PC only). t From the client computer, start the host application, then start EPSON TWAIN Pro Network to establish a connection to the scanner server. Only one client computer at a time can connect to the scanner server. t Choose the Image Type, Resolution, and other settings you want for your scan. t Place your first image on the document table (or in the automatic document feeder or one of the optional transparency units film guides). t Start the scan. Although this can be done from EPSON TWAIN Pro Network on the client computer, it may be more convenient to press the scanners ] Start button or to start the scan from the scanner server. Then you can scan several images with a single trip to the scanner. t If you want to scan more than one image, place your second image on the document table and press the scanners ] Start button again. Repeat this step for every image you want to scan. (The settings you chose for the first image apply to these images too.) t When you return to the client computer, your scanned images appear in the host applications window. Close EPSON TWAIN Pro Network to end your connection to the scanner server and allow other client computers to use the scanner.
Some applications, such as Adobe Photoshop 5.0 LE, automatically close the client computers connection to the scanner server when you press the ] Start button. You cant scan multiple images if youre using these applications.
Using the Dual Focus Mechanism
The Expression 1600s Dual Focus mechanism eliminates the Newton ring effect when youre using the transparency unit. The focus is automatically set to 2.5 when the transparency unit is installed and you select TPU for Neg. Film or TPU for Pos. Film as the Document Source. If you use the film guides, you dont need to change the focus setting. If you set your film directly on the scanners document table, you should preview your scan and click the Focus button on the Preview window to set the focus position to 0.0.

Selecting Resolution

As a rule of thumb for most images except line art, use a scanning resolution that is approximately one third of your output resolution. For example, use a scanning resolution of up to 100 dpi with a 300 dpi laser printer, and up to 200 dpi with a 600 dpi laser printer. For 1440 dpi ink jet printers, use a scanning resolution of up to 300 dpi. Try a scanning resolution of 240 dpi for 720 dpi printing. Keep the following in mind when you choose a resolution: t The higher the resolution you select, the larger the resulting image file will be. To keep your file size manageable, select the lowest possible resolution that gives acceptable quality. t If you need to scan at a higher resolution, you can reduce the size of the resulting image file by scanning only part of the image.

Starting a Network Scan

You can start a scan on your network scanner in several ways: t You can start EPSON TWAIN Pro Network on the client computer, make your scan settings, and click the Scan button on the EPSON TWAIN Pro Network main window. t You can press the ] Start button on the scanner to send the scanned image to the client computer that is currently connected to the scanner server. t You can click the Start button on the EPSON Scan Server dialog box to send the scanned image to the client computer currently connected to the scanner server. 2. Turn Virtual memory OFF. (From the Apple icon, select Control Panel, Memory.) 3. Assign a scratch disk. (Start Photoshop 5.0 LE, then select File, Preferences, Plug-ins & Scratch Disks.) Then restart your Macintosh. See the electronic Photoshop 5.0 LE manual on your Photoshop 5.0 LE CD-ROM for detailed information. (The Special Edition model doesnt inlclude Photoshop 5.0 LE.)

Click to start a scan from the scanner server.
Stopping a Network Scan in Progress
You can stop a scan in progress from either the client computer or the scanner server. t To cancel a scan from the client computer, click the Cancel button on the Progress bar. t To cancel from the scanner server, click the Cancel button at the bottom of the EPSON Scan Server dialog box. t To break the connection between the client computer and the scanner server, click the Stop button at the bottom of the EPSON Scan Server dialog box. This closes EPSON TWAIN Pro Network on the client computer and allows other client computers to connect to the scanner server.
