When application hides the driver user interface
Some application softwares such as an OCR software will not display the
ScanGear CS-U main window while scanning. With such application
softwares, scanning is executed with the settings of the application
software so that the Color Mode setting cannot be changed.
In this setting sheet, placing a check mark in the check box of Text
Enhanced (OCR) instead of B&W will execute the scan in the Text
Enhanced (OCR), regardless of the application software setting.
•Text Enhanced (OCR) instead of B&W
When you place a check mark in this check box, the scan will be
executed in Text Enhanced (OCR), if even the application software
sets the Color Mode to Black and White. The default setting is Off.
Color Settings
When the Color Mode is set to Color, you can select the color adjusting
method for scanning from Standard, Canon ColorGear Color matching or
None. The default setting is Standard.
•Standard
This setting adjusts the colors of the scanned original to match colors
displayed on the monitor. This setting is suitable when you are viewing
the scanned image on the monitor with album softwares or such.
•Canon ColorGear Color matching
The adjustment is automatically made in order to make the colors of
the scanner, monitor and printer the same. This reduces the
inconvenience for color adjustments of the monitor and printer. Select
this setting when you output the scanned image to a color printer.
