Instructions for optimizing scanning and scan resolution may vary from press to press. Take the time to find out what will produce the greatest results from the digital press that is producing your project.

Scanning and imaging equipment have evolved over the years, resulting in a range of standards. Be clear with the designer about your imaging guidelines and any recommendations you have for realizing clear, crisp type and photos.

“It’s not uncommon for a designer to be given standards that were accurate years ago for older equipment and now are outdated. In an early conversation, I make it a practice to always convey our resolution standards so we’re on the same page from the start.”

Tip: Share with the designer the resolution standards for your press.
