Resolution
Resolution was created to test scanners actual linearity across the image sensors and by turning the target through 90
degrees the scanners motor speed linearity could be tested.
Resolution assumes that the target would have just
vertical lines no horizontals at all at 0.1 inch intervals across the target and the line thickness should be around
around the 0.02 inch.
You should scan the image in a bi-level format at the scanner's true optical
resolution. Open up the image in the Resolution application and press the graph button to display the captured data
plotted against the mathematical model for the target.
Panning around the display you will see a red marker
line it is the scan line below this marker that is being used, and you can use the up and down buttons to make sure that
the application is receiving the best possible data. You can download the software from the link below.
Stitch
The Stitch application was created to test scanners actual stitch, now for this to work you need a black 0.05 inch line mounted
on solid surface like while Lexan.
You then place you target over the stitch point of the scanner and you run it
length ways, thus you will be testing the stitch while the motor is moving.
This will create a file that has one
line running for someway down the stitch of the Flatbed scanner, crop the image so there is only one inch either side of the
line.
Open the bi level image in the Stitch application and press the Key button and it will measure the thickness
of the line at several places along the line and will plot the thickness for you. You can download the software from the link
below.
Skew
Skew was created to test the unwanted movement of a document through through a Pinch Roller large format scanner.
Just because that you are transporting a document trough the scanner there will be some unwanted document movement but how
much?
If you scan a large piece of graph paper or Mylar with a grid and you measure the for points that are
displayed in the application it will process the points and present the results in a percentage of unwanted paper
movement. You can download the software from the link below.
File Size
File Size was created to give the user some idea of the file size and hence the disk space requirements for
image data.
The output is for uncompressed formats only and calculating compressed formats file size can
be haphazard at the very least. You can download the software from the link below.
