I'm doing some scans for a customer, he asks what curve settings are for scanning? honestly scan the art and only adjust curve by Photoshop to make them better, but the customer says his curve settings are:

The maximum ink coverage on 4-color: 300%
Highlight dots: 3-5%
Quarter tones: 21-22%
Mid-tones: 44-46%
Shadows: 85%

Ink coverage on 4-color: 300%, it's easy to understand, I really don't know the rest, could someone explain them? thanks a lot.
