The Color Controls setting allows you to make settings that affect the gamma for your monitor and the way the Auto Exposure feature works.
You can change the gamma value for your monitor by typing a value in the Display Gamma box, or by clicking the arrows next to the box. You can choose between values of 1.0 to 3.0 in increments of 0.1. The default setting is 1.8.
The Display Gamma setting also determines how clicking the Auto Exposure button affects the Gamma setting.
Select this check box to make the Auto Exposure feature work whenever you click the Full Preview button, modify the size of the preview with the zoom feature, make a marquee, or modify the size or change the location of a marquee.
If this check box is clear, the Auto Exposure feature will only work when you click the Auto Exposure button.
Note: |
This feature is only available when Color Controls is selected. |
Select this setting to reproduce the colors in your image using the available color management system for your computer: ICM for Windows, or ColorSync for Macintosh. Selecting this setting enables you to choose a color profile for your scanner in the Source (Scanner) list box, and a color profile for your monitor or output device (such as printer) in the Target list box. After the image is scanned, it is converted according to these settings before it is sent to the application.

Note for Macintosh users: |
Before scanning, be sure to make the appropriate System Profile settings in the ColorSync control panel for optimal color matching. For more information, see your Macintosh documentation. |
Choose a color profile for the scanner you are using from this list box. EPSON recommends selecting EPSON Standard when using an EPSON scanner.
In this list box you can choose a color profile that matches either your monitor or other output device, such as your printer, or you can choose one of the RGB color space profiles that matches those available in Adobe Photoshop.
To use the same color profile that is currently being used by your computer monitor, select Monitor RGB. To choose a different profile for your monitor or printer, select from the monitor and printer profiles in the list.
To choose a color profile that matches the RGB color space you are using in Adobe Photoshop, select that color space from the list. For more information on color management in Adobe Photoshop, see the Adobe Photoshop's documentation.

The preview image is displayed with compensation using the ICM engine which covers from target space to monitor.
When this check box is selected, the final scanned image matches with the preview image in the Preview window of Adobe Photoshop. Photoshop adjusts the workspace of the internal image to match the monitor and displays the converted image. Since other applications do not support this function, we recommend that you clear this check box.
This setting allows you to scan images without the adjusting the quality of the image at all. Select this setting for best results when making your own color profile using a color calibration device.
Click the Other tab to display the Other menu.
When this check box is selected, the Image Type, Destination, Resolution and Unsharp Mask settings are saved so that they remain effective the next time you start EPSON TWAIN.
When this check box is selected, the image shown in the Preview window is saved together with its associated settings so that it remains effective the next time you start EPSON TWAIN. This feature is useful when scanning the same document more than once, and is especially useful when using different TWAIN-compliant applications to scan the same document.
Note: |
This check box appears dimmed and is not available when the Preserve Preview Settings check box is not selected and the Thumbnail preview is activated. |
Select a hard disk drive as a temporally working area for some image operations. Only the local hard drives are available on the list.
