On the Color Settings tab, you can specify the following settings.



 

Color Adjustment

Select one of the following.

Recommended
Select this to vividly reproduce the tone of a document on the screen. It is recommended that you normally select this setting.

Select target profile.

Monitor
Select this checkbox to display preview image with optimum correction for monitor.

Defaults

 Note

  • The Color Adjustment Buttons on the Advanced Mode tab are not available when you select Color Matching.
     
  • This function is available when Color Mode is Color or Color(48bit).

None
Select this to disable color correction provided by ScanGear.


 Note

  • You can select one when Color Mode is Color, Color(48bit), or Grayscale.
     
  • Color Matching is available when ScanGear, monitor, color management-compliant application (such as Adobe Photoshop), and printer are set up correctly.

    Refer to the corresponding manual for the monitor, printer, and application settings.


Monitor Gamma

By setting the gamma value of a monitor, you can adjust the input data to the brightness characteristics of the monitor. Adjust the value if your monitor's gamma value does not match the default value set in ScanGear, and the colors of the original image are not accurately reflected in the monitor.

Click Defaults to return to the default Monitor Gamma value (2.20).


 Note

  • Refer to the manual of your monitor to check its gamma value. If it is not written in the manual, contact the manufacturer.
