You can access the settings by clicking on "Settings ..." click.

We recommend the following settings for the scan:

  • Type: RGB colours (24 bit)
  • Resolution: 150 dpi
  • Paper size: A3
  • Attribute: Colour
  • Rotate: If required, this option can be used to rotate the scan by 180°.

Please note that due to an error in the scanner software, the values can only be changed using the arrow keys. If you have changed any other values, you can change them under https://gpsupport.de/faqs/so-richten-sie-ihren-microtek-scanner-fuer-eine-optimale-messung-ein/ view.

Lighting

Observe the following rules:

  1. Avoid scattered light as far as possible
    • Choose a location without direct sunlight
    • Avoid light sources directly above the scanner
    • If necessary, darken the room with a curtain or blinds during the scan
    • If the dots above are not possible for you, darken the scanner with a dark cloth (black/dark blue)
