I'm interested. In particular, I'd like to get some ideas/help about
scanning images.  We just bought a DEST PC Scan 2000, a 300 dpi, 256 grey-
level scanner and I'd like some tips on getting the best results from it.
I've only made a few scans, but the machine seems to work well.  What I'd
like to know, specifically, is how to adjust the settings on the scanner
to get the best quality "halftone" output.  I'll be scanning photos of our
machine and I want to drop them into some documentation we're doing.
How do I get the best results?  What are some of the things I should be
aware of?  Any help will be gratefully received.

Thanks.
