How To

Choose a Scanning Mode in EPSON Scan

EPSON Scan provides four modes for you to make any scanning settings: Full Auto Mode, Home Mode, Office Mode, and Professional Mode.

Note:

The Full Auto Mode cannot be used when the optional Automatic Document Feeder is installed.

The Office Mode can be used only when the optional Automatic Document Feeder is installed.

Full Auto Mode:
The Full Auto Mode makes scanning simple, freeing you from complex settings or adjustments.

Home Mode:
The Home Mode enables you to adjust the basic image settings for scanned images.

Office Mode:
The Office Mode is helpful when you need to scan a large number of documents with the same size, using the optional Automatic Document Feeder. You can scan documents easily and speedy without preview in this mode.
