I am scan within photos for a book I am writing. The metaphors look awfully detailed on eyeshade.?

The printed version are not so clear. I am scanning the photos as JPEGS, am I doing anything wrong? Any of assistance ideas? Thanks.

Answer:
No, no, no, no, no! If the imagery look clear on your monitor once you have scan them in, next you do *not* need to adjust your scanner settings! Why are culture answering when they don't know what they're talking roughly speaking (again)?

If they don't look too good once you've printed them, it's something to do next to the printing process. You could fiddle near your print settings. Are you resizing the images? If you are shrinking them until that time you print them, then this will sort them look unclear due to aliasing and other factor.

If you are not resizing them, then try a different printer. Black and white laser printers are a bit rubbish for printing similes.
they may be in incredibly low resolution..you can see it clearly on the computer, but when you print it, it may turn out very pixelized or blurry...try messing next to your scanner settings in regard to the resolution or dpi you are scanning it surrounded by.set it higher...right luck
Your printer or printing software may be lowering the resolution of your scans.
you involve at least 300dpi... and use vector graphics so you can resize teh pics effortlessly... if the original similes are tiny, then increase teh scan resolution... 1x1 passport pics or contacts prints (thumbnails) come our approaching 7x5" at 1000dpi..
Yes, check the resolution settings when you scan.. For pictures, try a higher resolution, but no more than 200 dpi, 300 at the most. Try 150.
Check adjectives the settings in lingo of size and proportion, like that you aren't stretching an photo to fit, that could distort the printed image. Are you using Quark Xpress for your layout? I found that to be the easiest, but haven't worked near some of the more recent programs yet. With Quark it could own to do with some of the printer settings and if you are "collect(ing) for output" formerly printing.
In general, I prefer to scan as a tiff wallet, but I can't remember why.. it was base on advice I get, but I don't remember the reasoning. You might want to try it.
One last entry I am thinking off the top of my herald... I don't know if you are printing in color or black and white, but if you are printing within black and white, still scan the photo in color and next drop the color in the symbolic by making it grayscale. The pictures are clearer that way, but again, I can't explain it technically.
Good luck.
hey,
what it may be is the serious newspaper. more likely than not this is what it is. hope this help.
I wouldn't use Jaypegs for printing, its a compression format designed to shrink files for the web. Try in your favour them as bitmaps.
I agree that if the files look ok on screen next its the print settings that are the problem. The paper can sort a difference, use photo paper as dreary paper can confer fuzzy prints.

I scanned 6 x 4 inch photos at 300 dots per inch. This results within an image size of 1800 x 1200 pixels, too sizeable for most monitors without zoom out. Printed size via my normal SW is also 6 x 4 inches, short scaling to fit.
