Scroll through the applications in the Select Destination list and click the type of application for which you want to create a new scan configuration. When you create a new scan configuration, it will be listed for the buttons that are set for the same types of Destination Applications. For example, if you create a new configuration for a button that is set to show image editor applications, that new configuration is also listed for any other buttons set for image editors, but not for 62 VISIONEER PATRIOT 430 SCANNER USER'S GUIDE buttons set for text editing applications. Thus, you can create specific sets of scan configurations for specific functions and they are listed only when appropriate. If you want to start from the settings of another configuration, select the configuration, then click the Copy button. Note: If you're going to set up the new configuration to scan duplex (two-sided), include that in the name, such as "Scan for Dark Print (Duplex), " to remind you that it is a duplex scan. Type a new name for the configuration. Drag the sliders to set the Brightness and Contrast. If the configuration is locked, click the lock to unlock it. The icon becomes a key. Note: If you select a printer or other device in the Select Destinations list, the dialog box may have an additional Device Settings tab for setting specific options for the particular device. CONFIGURING THE ONETOUCH BUTTONS 63 5. Mode--Select a scanning mode: Black&White to scan in black and white. For example, letters and memos are usually scanned in black and white. GrayScale to scan items such as documents containing drawings or black and white photographs. Resolution--Drag the slider to the right or left to adjust the dots per inch (dpi) of the resolution. The higher the dpi setting, the sharper and clearer the scanned image. However, higher dpi settings take longer to scan and produce larger files for the scanned images. Brightness and Contrast--Sometimes an item is scanned with the brightness and contrast set too light or too dark. For example, a note written with a light pencil may need to be scanned darker to improve legibility. Contrast is the range between the darkest and lightest portions of the image. The greater the contrast, the more difference between the lighter and darker shades in the image. Drag the sliders to the right or left to adjust the brightness and contrast of the scanned image. If you want to lock the configuration, click the key icon to change it from a Key to a Lock. 64 VISIONEER PATRIOT 430 SCANNER USER'S GUIDE 7. Click the Page Settings tab to select page settings.
