The image of the scanned illustration is dull and needs clarity


Image with poor saturation

This occurs when the overall saturation is weak. In other words, the color density and purity is lacking.

As shown in the illustration, when scanning an image with a flat color density, raise the level of saturation by clicking the Color Adjustment button in the image import software, EPSON TWAIN Pro, and scan the image again.
