Black Level
With this option you can set what the scanner should interpret as “black” in the final image. If you are scanning 
items that have notes written with a pencil, you may want to raise the black level to have the pencil notes appear 
black in the image.  You can set a value for black from 0 to 127.  If you set this value to 127, you are telling the 
scanner that all pixels that are grey level 127 or lower (darker) should appear as black in the final image. This option 
is only available when scanning in Color or Gray.

scanner hardware properties. When the Advanced configuration mode is selected, a scanner panel option will be 
available for you to change any hardware settings that may be available for your scanner.
Disabled Options in this Section
Some options in the interface may be grayed out and cannot be selected. Grayed out options are either not 
appropriate for the current scanner, the software needed to enable the feature is not installed, or the feature is 
dependent on another setting in the scanner's interface. Hover the mouse cursor over a grayed out feature to see 
information about why the feature is unavailable.
Module Configuration
