The Page Settings Tab
1. Click the Page Settings tab to select page options. 
Standard—Click the menu arrow and choose a page size from the 
list. 
Custom—Enter the horizontal and vertical page dimensions in the 
boxes. The maximum size is 8.5" x 14". Click the name of the units, 
inches or millimeters, to toggle between them.
Improvements and Settings—One the options that apply to the 
selected scanning mode on the Scan Settings tab are available. 
• AutoCrop to Original—Select this option to let the scanner 
automatically determine the size of the item being scanned.
Always use the paper guides on the scanner so the page is not 
skewed. Skewed pages may not crop properly.
• Reduce Moire Patterns—Moire patterns are wavy, rippled lines 
that sometimes appear on the scanned images of photographs or 
illustrations, particularly newspaper and magazine illustrations. 
Selecting Reduce Moire Patterns will limit or eliminate moire 
patterns in the scanned image. This option is only available for 
the Grayscale or Color Mode lower resolutions.
• Straighten Image—Select this option to let the scanner 
automatically determine if a page is skewed, then straighten its 
image. If the page is fed through at too great an angle, the image 
may not scan correctly. In that case, re-scan the page using the 
paper guides to feed the paper in straight.
Click to toggle 
between inches 
and millimeters.
