Removing Dust and Scratch Marks from Originals Using
DIGITAL ICE Technology
DIGITAL  ICE Technology  Specifications
Using DIGITAL  ICE Technology  in  Home  Mode
Using DIGITAL  ICE Technology  in  Professional  Mode
Your scanner  and its Epson  Scan  software  are  equipped with  the  DIGITAL  ICE Technology  feature that  removes  stubborn
dust or  scratch  marks  from your originals.
Original image DIGITAL  ICE Technology  applied
DIGITAL  ICE Technology  can remove dust marks  that  the  Dust  Removal  feature cannot. However, it takes  longer to  scan using
DIGITAL  ICE Technology  and also  uses more  of your system resources.  It  is best  to  try  removing  dust marks  using Dust
Removal  before using DIGITAL  ICE Technology. See Removing Dust  Marks with  the  Dust  Removal  Feature  for details.
Note:
You cannot use Dust  Removal  and DIGITAL  ICE Technology  at the  same time.
Do not  use DIGITAL  ICE Technology  to  scan originals  that  do  not  contain dust or  scratch  marks;
otherwise your scanned  image(s) may be  distorted or  blurred.
Images  scanned  with  DIGITAL  ICE Technology  may appear softer than your original  images.
This  feature is not  available  if  the  Show Texture  check box  in  the  Configuration dialog  box  is selected.
Before using DIGITAL  ICE Technology, make sure your system meets the  requirements in  DIGITAL  ICE Technology
Specifications .
