COLOR IMAGE QUALITY

The Kodak i1400 Series Scanners produce excellent color
image quality, however, these scanners do not support
color management between devices (i.e., between monitor,
scanner and printer.)

Judgment of color is highly subjective. Here are some
things to consider when scanning in color:

• The difference in the color outputs of scanners,

printers, and monitors can affect the perception of the
scanned document.

• Computer displays and printer output can vary from

model to model, and from manufacturer to
manufacturer. An image may be acceptable on one
display and unacceptable on another.

• Area lighting (fluorescent, natural, incandescent) can

affect color perception.

• The appearance of a colored area within an image can

be perceived differently, based on what surrounds it.
The characteristics and condition of a document can
have an impact on color consistency.

• Color requirements may differ between environments

(e.g., in a business document environment, images
are generally viewed on a monitor, whereas in a “print
on demand” environment, scanned images are
printed).
