What scanning resolution should I use to get the best results when I print the scanned image?

• When you use the scanner buttons and EPSON Smart Panel, the software selects the best settings automatically. Here are some recommended settings for different types of scans.
  
  

  Image Type	Recommended Image Type	Scanning resolution for printing
  Photograph	Color Photo	300 dpi
  Small photograph to be enlarged	Color Photo	300 dpi to 2400 dpi
  Magazine	Color Photo	300 dpi
  Newspaper (text only)	Text (Background Removal)	400 dpi
  Text for OCR	Text (Background Removal)	400 dpi
  Text with images	Color Document	400 dpi
  Line art	Line art	300 to 2400 dpi

  1. If your final file is for on-screen viewing (for example, on a web page or in an e-mail message), select 96 dpi for your resolution.
  
  2. If you are enlarging your image, you must manually increase the resolution (dpi) proportionally to maintain the resolution of your original.
