High Image Quality

3-Dimentional Colour Correction - New advanced 3-D colour conversion is built in to ensure the appropriate combination of RGB data, improving on existing gamma correction for each colour element and sensor system.
Improved Black and White Contrast - Seven levels of B&W Contrast effectively adjust images to their appropriate contrast, from light texts on light backgrounds to dark texts on dark backgrounds.
Remove Punch Holes - Bound documents are made more presentable when scanned with the new binder hole removal function, automatically removing paper punch hole marks from the original image.
Custom Gamma Curve - The DR-1210C allows users to customise Gamma data of images with an easy-to-adjust curve. A sample image is shown and adjusted to reflect the change in curve, enabling users to obtain the desired image effect.

Advanced Image Processing Capabilities

Sketch Detection - Skew Detection helps correct the positioning of mis-aligned documents, helping to prevent tearing and jamming of precious documents.
Advanced Text Enhancement - Advanced Text Enhancement automatically adjusts the text threshold and background for precise processing, enhancing text from low contrast images.
