Support Scanners Perfection Series Epson Perfection V37

How can I remove dust marks from my originals as I scan them?

  • Using the Dust Removal feature in Epson Scan, you can virtually "clean" the dust marks from your original as you scan them.

    Note:
  • Before scanning your originals, carefully remove any dust that you can see on them.
  • Do not use Dust Removal to scan your originals that do not contain dust or scratch marks; otherwise your scanned image may be distorted or blurred.
