• Instant on with LED. Adopting LEDs as the light source, the ScanMaker 9800XL Plus is instantly ready. The system detects the scanner is available, and you start scanning. Now, when you want to scan. This boots your productivity and reduces energy costs amazingly. With its stable performance, the image quality will remain consistent even after used for a long time rather than decaying as with traditional light sources.
• Large A3 scan area. The 12” x 17” (tabloid-size) scan bed of the ScanMaker 9800XL lets you easily scan oversized originals, contact sheets, large pieces of art, mechanical blueprints, and X-rays.
• 1600 x 3200-dpi resolution with 3.7Dmax optical density. The exceptionally high resolution of the ScanMaker 9800XL lets you scan even postage-size images and enlarge them with amazing clarity, with little loss of detail. The scanner's 3.7 maximum optical density allows it to capture a wide range of tones approximating real-life color and hues.
• ScanWizardTM Pro scanning software. This is an advanced scanner controller program that provides many powerful, professional-level features for scanning. ScanWizard Pro features two color spaces, allowing users to work in the Native CMYK / RGB mode, as well as in
  the intuitive LCH (Lightness, Chroma, Hue) mode.
• Auto Dynamic Range. The system automatically determines the lightest density or tone (Dmin) and darkest tone (Dmax) of the original; then it captures the image color data with the full input tonal range of the scanner. This setting optimizes color balance and the contrast of the output image, and is most useful for scanning negative films.
• Multiple Sampling. Multiple Sampling is a process in which the scanner samples each line in the image a number of times, then obtains an average to reduce random noise.
• Auto Color Restoration. The Automatic Color Restoration feature is part of Microtek' s ColoRescueTM system for bringing faded colors back to life.
• Descreen. Descreen feature can remove moire patterns when scanning pictures or photographs printed in magazines or newspapers.
