    Default settings Pre-set values for optional menus. Density In this manual, refers to a measurement of the depth of the display. Dither The process by which a group of dots is arranged to represent a shade of gray. The pre- determined dot pattern simulates shades of gray.
  • Page 139 Equipment Error An error that cannot be fixed by the operator. The operator should call the manufacturer for service. Error diffusion High-quality halftone (pseudo-grayscale) image production based on black-and-white pixel binarization. A pixel's optical density and that of adjacent pixels are summed, with black pixels relocated in their order of density as they relate to adjacent pixels.

    Mirror image The read image is symmetrically flipped to produce a mirror image of the original detected in the main scanning direction. Moire Patterns Recurrent patterns on scanned images caused by incorrect settings of angles. Noise removal Isolated noise from an image appearing as black spots in white areas and voids in black areas is removed to improve image quality.

    Photograph mode (White level follower OFF) Selecting photograph mode makes brightness and contrast settings effective but pre- vents the threshold from being set. With photograph mode, the darkness of image corre- sponds to the black-pixel density, making it suitable in scanning images such as photographs having gradations.
