  287. Based on a unique dual-lens design, Mirage II performs at resolutions of<br />
  288. 1400 x 2800 dpi and 700 x 1400 dpi, true hardware resolution. Dual-lens<br />
  289. technology overcomes the limitations of current CCD technology, offering a<br />

  299. stitch them together with software or send them out to be scanned on a drum<br />
  300. scanner. With the Mirage II, users can take advantage of its increased<br />

  306. manually tune virtually every aspect of their image or proceed with the<br />
  307. expert settings of the automated enhancement features. MagicScan 4.0 has<br />
  308. the ability to support industry standards such as ICC and Kodak CMS color<br />
  309. profiles, and Apples Color Sync 2.0 as well as HTML on-line help,<br />
