How to Use this Guide

This guide explains the operating procedures for Canon Plug-in Module CS-U (hereafter referred to as Plug-in Module CS-U), the Macintosh driver (plug-in software) used with Canon image scanners. A plug-in is not an independent software program; it must be used within a plug-in compliant application, such as CanoScan Toolbox or Adobe Photoshop LE, to expand the capabilities of that program. Adding scanning capabilities to your computer is as easy as putting in a plug. Simply copy the Plug-in Module CS-U files to your computer. Please read this guide to perform the installation procedures and scan. Store this manual in a handy location for future reference.

Setting the Resolution and Magnification

The magnification of an image can be changed before scanning to accommodate reproductions that are larger or smaller than the original. The settings can be changed in increments of 1%.
12"/30cm
Scanning at 200%
4"/10cm
6"/15cm
Scanning with horizontal/ vertical 2x magnification
8"/20cm
Scanning at 50%
Scanning with horizontal/ vertical 0.5x magnification
3"/7.5cm
2"/5cm
Changing the magnification setting causes the resolution display on the control panel to change correspondingly. This resolution setting is referred to as the “scanning resolution.”
Output Device Resolution= 720 dpi, Magnification= 100%
Magnification
Scanning Resolution
Magnification

50%
The scanning resolution changes accordingly.
Hint
Magnification and Resolution
Why does the image size change with the magnification? Let us answer this with an example using a BJ (720 dpi) output device. If you were to scan an image with this device setting and set the magnification factor to 50%, the scanning resolution will automatically change to 360 dpi. At this setting, the image will be scanned at a resolution of 360 dpi and the output device will convert this to 720 dpi, shrinking the size of the output in the process because it will only have half the data with which to fill the space.

Click inside these boxes to enter values directly.
Hint
The Relationship Between Data Volume and Scanning Resolution
The higher the magnification and scanning resolution settings, the greater the file size of scanned images. There are certain inconveniences associated with large data volumes, such as longer processing times and the risk of running out of memory resources. You are advised against setting the resolution higher than necessary. For example, if you scan an A4 (21.0 x 29.7 cm (8.3 x 11.7 in.)) size image in the color mode, the amount of data varies according to the resolution.

Setting the Scan Mode

When an image is scanned, it is read as a collection of “dots.” The scan mode that is selected determines how each of these dots is represented in the output. The following four scan modes are available.
Black and White
Expresses images in two colors only: black or white. A dot is expressed as either black or white according to its brightness level and the value set as the threshold value, which can be freely set. Select this mode to output to a monochrome printer.
8 bit Grayscale
Expresses a dot in up to 256 shades of gray. Select this option for scanning black and white graphics and photographs.
Grayscale (14/16 bit)
Scans the image with finer tonal gradations. Select it when a particularly high-quality image is required. Grayscale (14 bit) (16,384 shades between black and white) can be selected with the CanoScan D1230U, and Grayscale (16 bit) (65,536 shades between black and white) with the CanoScan D2400U. The data obtained with this setting can only be used with Photoshop LE and certain other applications.
S T E P 1
24 bit Color
Expresses a dot with 8 bits or 256 shades for each primary color - red, green and blue (RGB) - for a total of 24 bits. A dot can be expressed in up to 16.7 million distinct shades. Use this option for most color photographs.
Color (42/48 bit)
Scans the image with finer color gradations. Select it when a particularly high­quality image is required. Color (42 bit) (16,384 colors per RGB channel) can be selected with the CanoScan D1230U, and Color (48 bit) (65,536 colors per RGB channel) with the CanoScan D2400U. The data obtained with this setting can only be used with Photoshop LE and certain other applications.
Hint
Scanning the same image in the four different scan modes produces different file sizes. By size, black and white mode requires the least disk space, followed in order by the grayscale and the color modes. Before scanning, check the data volume indicated on the control panel.
The numerator indicates the amount of disk space required for the scanned image while the denominator indicates the amount of disk space available. When the required space exceeds the available space or 2GB, the scan button is unavailable.
21
Page 22
Operating Procedures
Click the arrow beside Scan Mode.
Select a scan mode from the pop-up menu.
S T E P 1
Selecting the box opens the pop-up menu.
Caution
If you select 14/16 bit Grayscale or 42/48 bit Color for a software applica­tion that does not support these options, the system may hang up when you attempt to execute the scanning job with either selection. Before you use these settings, check the specifications to determine whether or not 14/16 bit Grayscale and 42/48 bit Color scanning is supported. Adobe Photoshop (Ver. 3.0 or later) and Adobe Photoshop LE supplied with this package support these modes.
If you scan an image with a version of Adobe Photoshop compatible with 42 bit Color, a 14/16 bit Grayscale or 42/48 bit Color image is scanned as a 16-bit Channel Mode image.
14/16 bit Grayscale and 42/48 bit Color images generally cannot be printed without modification. To print them out, first transform them into 8-bit Grayscale or 24-bit Color images, respectively.

Histogram Settings

The data comprising an image contains a variety of brightness settings ranging from shadows to highlights. These settings are represented in Plug-in Module CS-U by values ranging between 0 and 255. The difference in these values determines the image’s contrast. To show how much of the image data falls into each brightness setting, Plug-in Module CS-U contains a histogram feature that shows this data distribution clearly. With the histogram you can adjust the level of shadows and highlights to achieve beautiful tones with the best possible contrast.
Hint
You can enhance images with the histogram options only when the image has been previewed in the color or grayscale scan modes.
You cannot enhance the image with the histogram when ColorSyncTM is selected.
How to Interpret Histograms
You can select the entire image or specify an area for which a histogram will be generated. The height of the peaks of the histogram is directly related to the volume of data with the corresponding value.

Brightness and Contrast Settings

You can adjust the image with two slide bars, one for contrast and one for brightness. Use this method to adjust an image before scanning if it is slightly out of focus or too dark.
Hint
You cannot use this feature with the black and white or color scan modes when ColorSync is selected.
Contrast
Contrast is the difference between the lightest light and the darkest dark in the image. A high contrast setting creates a great difference between light and dark shades, and there is a very sharp distinction between light and dark areas of the image. A low contrast setting creates a small difference between light and dark shades, and the distinction between light and dark areas of the image are not as obvious.
Contrast = 128 (Normal) Contrast = 100Contrast = 170
If the image appears slightly out of focus, increase the contrast setting to sharpen the image. If the contrast setting is too high, shadows will blacken and the highlights will wash out.
Brightness
Brightness is the overall lightness or darkness of an image without changing the contrast. Adjust the brightness setting to change the overall lightness or darkness of the entire image. If the brightness setting is too high, the highlights will wash out, and if too low, the shadows will blacken.
Brightness = 128 (Normal)

Gamma Value Settings

By adjusting the gamma value, you can more closely match brightness of the displayed image to the printed image. Adjust this value if what you see on the screen is very different from your printout.
Hint
You cannot use this feature with the black and white scan mode, or with the color scan modes when ColorSync is selected.
Matching the Gamma Value to the Display Characteristics
Not all screen displays reproduce color tones in exactly the same way, and this reproduction method is expressed as a gamma value from 1.4 to 2.2 and normally reproduces a slightly dark image. In order to avoid this and reproduce an image that is faithful to the original, the gamma value must be adjusted in Plug-in Module CS-U. Plug-in Module CS-U can adjust the pre-set screen gamma value of 1.8, but if the screen has a gamma value other than 1.8 then the gamma value for that screen must be set.
S T E P 3
Gamma value
Plug-in Module CS-U and the screen display have different gamma values. During a scanning job Plug-in Module CS-U receives the image read from the scanner as input and sends it to the parent application as output. The gamma value in this interval where Plug-in Module CS-U converts input to output is the Plug-in Module CS-U gamma value. On the other hand, the data received from Plug-in Module CS-U as input is sent to the screen display as output. The gamma value in this interval where the image input from Plug-in Module CS-U is converted to output for the screen display is the screen display gamma value. Setting the screen display gamma value causes the scanner gamma value to be calibrated automatically as the inverse value. For example, if the screen display gamma value is set for 1.8, then the scanner gamma value is calibrated for 0.56 (the inverse of 1.8).
Hint
Please read the documents shipped with your display or contact the manufacturers customer service department to obtain the correct gamma value for your particular display model.
If you intend to adjust the color tone with ColorSync, change the settings in the ColorSync control panel (found within the Control Panels folder) and do not manually change the gamma value settings as described in the following pages.

Adjusting the Threshold Value

When the scan mode is set to black and white, the image brightness can be adjusted. The threshold value setting determines whether a halftone will be expressed as a black or a white data point. The possible threshold values range between 0 and 255. Below a given threshold value, all data is converted to black. Likewise, all data with a value above the threshold is converted to white. Accordingly, higher threshold values produce darker images while lower threshold values result in brighter images.
Threshold Value = 128 (Standard) Threshold Value = 70Threshold Value = 180
To Set the Threshold Value
S T E P 3
When the scan mode is set to black and white, click the [Tone Adjustment] button or pull down the Image menu and select [Tone Adjustment].

Recommended:
Reproduces the colors of the scanned item vividly on a computer display. You are advised to use this mode under normal circumstances.
ColorSync:
Automatically matches the color settings of the scanner, computer display and color printer. Select this mode when you wish to set the appropriate color profile to view the colors of the scanned image on the computer display as closely matched to the original image as possible.
None:
Scans without color correction. Select this mode when you wish to adjust the colors yourself with the color correction features of Plug-in Module CS-U or another application program after scanning. This mode is most appropriate for advanced users.
S T E P 3
Caution
This function is available only when the scan mode is set to one of the color modes; not to the grayscale or black and white modes.
The Tone Adjustment menu item, Tone Adjustment button and Auto Tone Adjustment button are disabled when the ColorSync option is selected.
The previous settings are in effect when Plug-in Module CS-U is started from an application program that does not display the Plug-in Module CS-U control panel.
Hint
ColorSync responds differently to each computer according to the unique conditions affecting it (type of display used, etc.), which may cause differences even between computers of the same make and system version. The tone characteristics of an image scanned with ColorSync on one computer, therefore, may change when processed on another computer.

Scanning Techniques

Matching Scan Resolution to Purpose
Plug-in Module CS-U provides many choices of resolution. The resolution you choose should depend upon your output device, the intended purpose of the image, the type of image and your scanner.
It is generally recommended that you scan at a higher resolution than required for output. This ensures that you obtain the best quality image, which can then be reduced with an image editing program to suit specific purposes.
Different types of images require different scan settings. However, increases in scan resolution have a diminishing return after a certain point. For example, a text image can be scanned at 600 dpi for output to a 600 dpi laser printer, while a color image should be scanned at 180 dpi to be output to a color bubble jet printer (360 dpi). To output a color or grayscale image to a bubble jet printer, use a resolution equal to half the resolution of the printer. Set the resolution to 180 dpi, for example, for output on a 360 dpi printer.
• Scan in Black and White mode if you are scanning line art or other items that are Black and White with no shades of gray.
• Scan in Black and White mode if you are scanning a text image for conversion to editable text.
• Scan in 8bit Grayscale mode if you are scanning continuous-tone Black and White photographs, charcoal drawings or originals with shades of gray.
• Scan in 24bit Color mode if you are scanning full-color images, such as photographs or illustrations.
• If you are using an OCR (optical character reader) program in Black and White mode, you are recommended to select a resolution higher than 300 dpi.

Glossary

Auto Tone Correction
A function that uses brightness/contrast and gamma value settings to automatically analyze and adjust images.
Bits/Bit Numbers
Each dot of a 1-bit image is assigned either black or white according to the threshold brightness value, resulting in the image being reproduced in just those two colors. Each dot of an 8-bit grayscale image can be assigned any one of 256 tones of gray, ranging from pure white to black. Each dot of a 24-bit color image can be assigned any one of 16.7 million colors since each of its color channels (red, green and blue) can be expressed in 256 distinct color tones (8 bits).
Black and White
An image mode used to reproduce images in two tones only: black and white. The brightness level at which a dot is determined to be either black or white is called the threshold value, which can be adjusted. See Threshold Value.
Black Eyedropper Tool
Tool used to the select the darkest portion of an image in the preview area. Used with the Histogram function to adjust image brightness. When this tool is clicked on the image, all areas that are darker are set to pure black.
Brightness
The intensity of light in a scanned image. Raising an image’s brightness increases its overall brilliance, while decreasing it makes it darker.
Color Balance
The function in that enables you to adjust the blend of colors in a color image. You can adjust the color balance by altering the blend of the red, green and blue color set or the cyan, magenta, yellow and black color set.
Color Channel
Any one of the red, green or blue elements of a color image. Since color images are assigned 8 bits per pixel for each of the red, green and blue channels, each pixel is assigned 24 bits of data. The master channel is the composite of these three channels. In the Histogram and Tone Curve image adjustment functions, each channel can be separately or collectively adjusted.
66
Page 67
Color
An image mode that scans an image as red, green and blue (RGB) light and can reproduce each one of these three colors in 256 distinct tones (8 bits). Since 256 x 256 x 256 = approximately 16.7 million, this many color tones are possible in this mode.
ColorSync
A color management system for Macintosh computers. Automatically compensates for color differences between scanners, monitors and printers. ColorSync requires that a color profile file be included for your specific monitor or printer.
Contrast
The difference between light and dark areas of a scanned image. Raising the contrast makes individual components of an image stand out more while lowering it softens the image’s overall appearance.
Dot
The basic element used to reproduce images. Images are reproduced as columns and rows of dots. A scanner’s resolution is the measure of the number of dots it can read and reproduce per inch (dpi).
DPI
Dots per inch. An expression of monitor and printer resolution. Measured as the number of dots per horizontal inch on monitors and the number of dots that can be printed by a printer in an inch. See also Pixel, Optical Resolution and Resolution.
Gamma Value
A function for adjusting the overall brightness of an image. A gamma value is the mathematical expression of how brightness data is converted from a scanner (the input) to a monitor or printer (the output). With 1 as the base value, a gamma value less than 1 makes an image darker, while a higher value makes it brighter. The brightness handling characteristics of monitors vary between manufacturers and models. A monitor’s gamma value explains the degree to which its output (what you see on the screen) varies from the input value.
67
Page 68
Grayscale
An image mode that scans only the brightness data of an image and reproduces the image in white, black and 254 shades of gray (256 tones or 8 bits).
Histogram
A graph indicating the distribution of brightness data in an image. A dot is assigned a brightness value ranging from 0 (shadows) to 255 (highlights). The histogram shows how much image data there is at each brightness value. Adjusting the histogram changes the image contrast.
Image File
Images are expressed as collections of dots with varying color and brightness values that are digitized in particular formats for processing by a computer. At the most basic level, an image file contains bitmap information, which is the color information for each dot in each column and row of an image. The various file formats (TIFF, BMP, etc.) use different methods of storing and recalling this information.
Magnification
An expression of the relationship between the scanning resolution and the output resolution stated as a percentage. If the output resolution is set to 720 dpi and the scanning resolution to 360 dpi, then the magnification rate is 50%.
Moiré
The patterns or lines created by overlapping dots in an image. This phenomenon is found when photographs or pictures are scanned from books and magazines at low resolutions. The Descreen function helps to eliminate moiré patterns.
Optical Resolution
An expression of the volume of data per inch (dpi) that can be sampled by a scanner.
68
Page 69
Pixel
An abbreviation of picture element, the smallest element on a monitor screen.
Plug-in Software
A program that extends the functionality of an application program. Plug-in Module CS-U is a driver plug-in that adds scanning capabilities to programs such as CanoScan Toolbox and PhotoStudio 2000.
Preview Area
Area at the right of the Plug-in Module CS-U window used to display preview images. Clicking the [Preview] button causes the scanner to scan its platen and reproduce the image in the preview area. Please note, however, that preview images do not get downloaded to the application program in use.
Preview Scan
A low-resolution, trial scan of an object. The image shown in the preview area can be used to adjust the scan area, brightness and color balance before initiating the final scan.
Remove Dust and Scratches
This function is available with a Film Adapter Unit FAU-S13 equipped CanoScan D2400U. It utilizes the properties of infrared light to detect small flecks of dirt or scratches on film and retouches them.
Resolution
The density of the dots used to express an image. Image fineness or coarseness is expressed as the number of dots per inch (dpi). See also DPI.
RGB
A color set of red, green and blue: the three primary colors of light. The scanner picks up light reflected off objects with its red, green and blue sensors. Color printers output color using the complements to the RGB color set, which are cyan, magenta, yellow and black (CMYK). Cyan, magenta and yellow are called the three secondary colors.
69
Page 70
Scan Mode
Any one of the various methods used to reproduce image data. Scan modes are distinguished by the number of bits used to describe each pixel. Plug-in Module CS-U features the following scan modes.
24 bit Color: assigns 8 bits of data for each color channel (RGB) in each pixel.
Each pixel is therefore assigned 24 bits.
42/48 bitColor: While the Color mode scans at 8 bits per RGB channel, this
mode scans at 14 or 16 bits per channel to achieve a particularly high-quality image. Each pixel is expressed with 42 or 48 bits of data.
8 bit Grayscale: assigns 8 bits of data to its single color channel. Each pixel is
therefore assigned 8 bits.
14/16 bit Grayscale: While the Grayscale mode scans at 8 bits, this mode
scans at 14 or 16 bits to achieve a particularly high-quality image. Each pixel is expressed with 14 or 16 bits of data.
Black and White: assigns 1 bit of data to each pixel.
Scanning
The process of using a scanner to read image data. Scanned data is sent to the computer as image data.
Shadows
The darkest portions of an image scanned in a color or grayscale image mode.
Threshold Value
The dividing value at which a pixel is determined to be either black or white when the image is reproduced as a black and white image. The higher the threshold, the darker the image. The lower the threshold, the brighter the image.
Tone Curve
A function used to adjust image brightness. The tone curve (or gamma curve) is a graphic representation of the relationship of the input from the scanner to the output to the monitor or printer.
Unsharp Mask
A function that sharpens image outlines. Makes an image appear naturally sharper without changing the brightness, contrast or color balance.
White Eyedropper Tool
Tool used to the select the brightest portion of an image in the preview area. Used with the Histogram function to adjust image brightness. When this tool is clicked on the image, all areas that are brighter are set to pure white.
