The quality of the photos I scan on to my computer aren't as good as I'd like. What should I do?

Yes, the Brother MFC-2690DW can scan photo slides. It is capable of scanning a range of documents and media, including photos and slides, in both black and white and color. The Brother MFC-2690DW also comes with a range of software which can be used to automatically adjust the quality of the images and scan them into digital formats such as JPEG or TIFF. Additionally, you can use the Brother MFC-2690DW to scan and digitize slides directly into a computer or other digital device, allowing you to easily store and share your images.

Are you certain that you have sufficient battery charge?

HaHa! You are kidding, aren't you? This camera is a film camera. The only way to connect to your computer is to have the 35mm film developed - then scan the photos into a flash drive. Insert flash into the USB port, and VOILA! Your pictures are on your computer.

Often a digital frame can only look within a certain number of folders... make sure your photos aren't within a folder that is within a folder... etc. If all your photos are in the same first folder and some can't be viewed, make sure they aren't "raw" format, or some other incompatible format. If so, you may need to convert them to jpeg or some other compatible format with your computer and then move them back over to the frame. After this, my only suspicion would be that some of your photos are corrupted somehow... take them to a computer and ensure they still can be viewed there. Good luck!

Yes! but first you must scan them into the computer and open them in a photo editor application like Photoshop. There you can do a whole world of editing including lightening your fotos.

Good luck and god bless!

You can scan a document or photo or negative film etc.. using a scanner, there a many types of scanners which you can choose as per your requirement. There are dedicated scanners, all in one integrated scanners, or two in one like that.. but if you need it for your professional use or daily use, it's better to get a dedicated scanner not "all in one" since with all in one if the copier fails or fax fails, the scanner will also fail because they are related and built-in integrated.
The process of scanning a document is as follows;

• > Place the document on the scanner's flatbed.
• > Press scan button or scan using the integrated software from the computer.
• > Customize the scan settings/quality.
• > Save the scanned documents.

Printing a document to a larger size is different, you can use photo editors like photoshop, paint.net etc..where you can changed the resolution as well as the size of the image. It's best to change the size or resolution before you give the print command. Or you can also change the print size with the paper size or print size.
If you still need more help, please let me know with more details. I am ready to assist you.

Good luck.

Thanks for using FixYa.

Open the lid on the HP scanner to reveal the scanning surface. Tthe scanning surface is the glass surface on which documents are placed for scanning.

Step 2 Put the picture face down on the scanning surface, using the positioning mark to set the picture. The positioning mark is normally an arrow and it indicates the correct placement of a document on the scanning surface for a good scan.

Step 3 Close the lid on the HP scanner.

Step 4 Press the "Scan To" button on the HP scanner and choose a format for the scan. "Scan to File" or "Scan to Email" are a couple of the choices. Press "OK" and your scan will begin. On your computer screen, a progress bar will let you know how your scan is going. Once the scan is complete, the folder where the file was scanned will appear on screen and you can click on it to ensure the quality of the scan.

Epson's RX620 scans and prints photos at high quality. Text, however, was slow to print and not that good.
Epson's multifunction devices fall into two categories: general-purpose models that are designed for home or small office use, and photo-oriented devices such as this, aimed more at the enthusiastic amateur snapper.
Because it's a photography-centred device, the RX620 uses dye inks. On photo paper, these produce more vibrant colours than pigment-based inks, and a true gloss finish, but on plain paper produce inferior, less vivid results.
The Stylus Photo RX620 is quite large, and looks dated - but it's not short of modern photo-printing features. Its built-in memory card reader is compatible with seven commonly used digital memory formats, including xD and SmartMedia. Photographers using film will appreciate the scanner, with its high optical resolution and transparency backlight.
On plain paper the RX620's text printing showed bandingand rough outlines on default settings. Our five-page black-and-white text document took two and a half minutes to print. Increasing quality settings made it even slower.
We tried realigning the print heads to improve print quality. The RX620's manual process involves choosing the best-aligned examples from four rows of 15 patterns. This takes good eyesight, and it can be hard to choose between similar-looking options. We needn't have bothered - text remained unchanged.
Photo printing was far better. The RX620 produced some of the best prints we've seen from a multifunction device, but only at its highest quality - and slow - setting. Our A4 test picture took 15 minutes 12 seconds to appear.
The RX620's scanner is excellent, previewing an A4 sheet in six seconds and scanning a 6x4in photo at 600 dots per inch (dpi) in just 14.5 seconds. Negative scan times were reasonable, with a single frame scanned at 2,400dpi in 1 minute 40 seconds.
The RX620 can perform many advanced functions without being attached to a computer, and its colour screen has a clear menu system. Prints can be made directly from memory cards, photo prints or even film. There are four document copying settings, but results using the default Text quality are adequate for most office purposes.
The RX620 isn't a brilliant multifunction device. It does many things well, but its printer is too slow, and simply not good enough on plain paper.






Please rate my solution after reading it. Thank you

After the first scan through select the zoom in functionality to just scan the area you want to zoom in. That way the scanned image will be much bigger and better quality.

good luck
