Finally Got My New Scanner-Only 600dpi But Shows #500 Nicely

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and scanner resolution is meaningless unless you are exceeding the native (optical) resolution of the scanner. For example, when I look at the image you posted, I see highlights that are completely blown out. You can't even see the texture of the paper.

By way of comparison:

Regarding scanning modules/software, if you truly want to have control over every aspect of your scanning, and if you want to be able to scan directly into 64-bit Photoshop (TWAIN only works with 32-bit applications, not 64-bit), I recommend VueScan:

$29.95 for a license with 1 year of upgrades, or $79.95 for lifetime upgrades. You can download and run it as a trial before purchasing.

I use it both from within Photoshop and as a standalone scanning application. It allows far more fine-tuning than any WIA to TWAIN driver.

I wasn't saying my image was perfect but an example of how an engraved stamp could look. I felt there were improvements that could be made and the forum has delivered as usual
