Without color matching, the scanner captures a wider range of colors but these colors may not accurately match the true colors of the original image, making the scan appear different from the original. Color Balance This tool balances the lightest and darkest areas of an image so that they are evenly distributed. Output Scaling Output scaling allows you to enlarge/shrink the size of the final output image. Adjust the scaling by using the slide bar or typing the desired setting in the Output Scaling box. For example, setting the Output Scaling to 200% will double the amount of pixels contained in the image.
